The story in the game is described as having a decent length, but it quickly loses its charm, leading players to rush through the final hours to complete it. Cooperative play is hindered by limitations on quest progression, making it feel more like a chore than an engaging experience. Additionally, the quest design is criticized for being unintuitive and cluttered, detracting from the overall enjoyment of the narrative.
- “I usually get bored of farming games as they require a lot of time, but with Morp, I feel as though I can play forever. The quests get very addictive, and I often find myself dedicated to finishing the tasks.”
- “At 25 hours, I've finished the main story but still have some other optional grinds to do for achievements, so I'll probably finish those off and wait to see how the game gets updated in the future before I give it another spin.”
- “The start of the game needs to have an overhaul; the quests need to be hideable because it's really annoying when half of the screen is taken up by 'you need to do this thing for this NPC'...”
- “After 29 hours of gameplay, I can say that I had mild fun in Time to Morp, but it very quickly lost its charm and became a 'let's 100% this and get it over with to move on to the next game.' The last 6-8 hours of gameplay is simply waiting for days to turn over to get more quests to actually finish the game, which is rather boring.”
- “In a 2-player co-op session, having only the host able to talk to crew members to progress the story is frustrating. Player 2 couldn't hand in quests to the crew at all.”
- “The start of the game needs an overhaul. The quests should be hideable because it's really annoying when half of the screen is taken up by 'you need to do this thing for this NPC' and so on.”

The gameplay is described as a comfortable loop focused on figuring out and automating the care of "morps," but it suffers from a lack of proper tutorials and online resources, making it difficult for players to understand key mechanics. While the game offers enjoyable sandbox elements and a built-in wiki, it can become tedious, especially in the later stages where players find themselves waiting for in-game time to progress. Overall, the experience starts off fun but may lose its charm as players aim for completion.
- “The gameplay loop is comfortable; you figure out what makes morps morph, create an environment for them, and try to automate the process.”
- “The game itself is a more sandbox-style experience similar to Slime Rancher, featuring a fantastic built-in wiki/search mechanic, along with plenty of automation and decorative elements.”
- “Scanning for morps is a late-game research activity that is crucial for the gameplay, and while the game ends with a 'to be continued,' this aspect needs to be prioritized by the developers.”
- “Very convoluted, does not have proper tutorials to teach players about mechanics, mainly the room system for housing morps which I struggled to understand due to no online resources existing at the moment. The best you'll get in-game is two images and some text that teaches you how to set the fence but not what goes into an area to make it a home for the morps.”
- “Scanning for them is a late-game research and they are crucial for the gameplay. For this to be limited seems like a massive oversight by the developers. Yes, I know the game ends with a 'to be continued,' but this needs to be on the top of the to-do list.”

Overall, players report satisfactory optimization, with good performance on various devices like the GPD Win Max 2. While some users are eager for future updates to enhance gameplay, they are currently focused on refining automation systems after completing the main story.
- “At 25 hours, I've finished the main story but still have some other optional grinds to do for achievements, so I'll probably finish those off and wait to see how the game gets updated in the future before I give it another spin. Or I'll instead end up just trying to figure out how to make all my automation actually run smoothly now that the main effort is completed and I have everything unlocked.”
- “Performance seemed good on my GPD Win Max 2; haven't tried on Steam Deck yet.”
