The gameplay features interesting mechanics, such as limiting players to three items, which maintains a balanced difficulty level. However, some players find mechanical shortcomings, particularly the inability to avoid picking up items, detracting from the overall experience. While the controls are fluid and the gameplay is enjoyable for casual play, it remains quite basic.
“A lot of people have complaints about how you can't avoid picking up an item, but I think this is one of the gameplay mechanics, so every wave is not exactly the same.”
“It had some interesting mechanics, such as only being able to hold on to 3 items at a time, which keeps the difficulty rather even.”
“Extremely basic gameplay, but the controls seem fluid and it is a good time passer while at work :)”
“This alone would sound good to score-grinders, but the title has some mechanical shortcomings which, for me, prevent it from being a cohesive experience.”

The story of the game features a unique premise where players control a sentient box on a mission to eliminate possessed toys, but overall, the narrative is criticized for being minimalistic and lacking depth. Many reviewers express disappointment, noting that the game fails to deliver a compelling or engaging storyline, with repetitive gameplay and limited character development.
“Play as a sentient box whose mission is to eradicate all the possessed toys with the aid of power-ups along the way.”
“Everyone loves a good underdog story.”
“Sadly, as you can see by the thumbs-down icon, this review of 'Morning Never Comes' is not going to be one such story - and unfortunately, when put against its aforementioned nemesis, this game loses the fight before it even begins.”
“The morning never comes is a twin-stick shooter like The Binding of Isaac, but unfortunately very minimalistic and has no story whatsoever. You can only carry three items (which is not bad, don't get me wrong) and you need to recycle one at the end of each round, but it is very limited from what I saw, and all of this happens on the same map over and over, putting a new enemy per round.”
