It seems that your character has a bit of alien DNA in him and is slowly transforming into one, District 9-style. However, things start to get a bit better on the next level.
The second level isn't much better than the first, but it at least it does have a building-sized alien chasing you through the streets of Moscow, so that's something. MorphX doesn't make a good first impression. The graphics bring back memories of launch titles for the original Xbox. At this point, MorphX is a very "old school" game and not in a rose-colored glasses good way: there are no modern niceties like a cover system (you can't even crouch) or sprinting dumb enemies spawn in behind you a lot and don't move much when you shoot them there's no in-game map or compass of any sort and the voice-acting is comically bad. The first level of MorphX takes place in a deserted, confusingly-designed shopping mall and has you running and gunning against soldiers and a bunch of bug-like aliens. Your character, some nameless guy with a mysterious past, is one of those survivors.
In the pre-rendered cinematic that kicks off MorphX, we learn that Moscow (and the Earth, most likely) has been overtaken by some damn aliens known as "The Swarm." While most of humanity has been wiped out, there are a few survivors here and there. No, MorphX isn't the best game you'll ever play. While none of these things will save MorphX from obscurity, they elevate the game to something better than what you might expect. There are flashes of innovation and a handful of neat gameplay ideas that actually work and are fun to experience. Sounds like something to avoid.Īt the same time though, MorphX does some things right. MorphX is a budget-priced third-person action game that has several things wrong with it: The gameplay mechanics are dated, the artificial intelligence is weak, the story is daffy and full of holes, and the production values are straight out of a bargain bin game circa 2003.
