Morphies Law is an immensely fun multiplayer shooter with a neat little twist – when you shoot an enemy, the body part that gets hit shrinks for them and gets enlarged for you. Good at taking headshots? Well, now enemy heads are smaller and your head is a lot bigger. Dominating the battlefield? Now you’re a giant, and a lot easier to hit, while all the enemies are tiny. Everything can get really disproportionate, depending on where you or the enemies are getting hit, and it’s ridiculous fun. There’s a ton of customization, both for you and the weapons, and I came to really dig the depth here, especially since everything is so vibrant and colorful.
Your body parts also have abilities, and their size can change the strength of the respective abilities. For example, if you shoot the enemy’s feet, it shrinks and so does their running speed, while your’s increases.
The game and the ideas it brings with it feel incredibly clever and I am having a blast paying it. Easily one of the more fun multiplayer shooters this year.
Pros:
Clever ideas
Looks flashy
Tons of depth
