The story in "notcod" is minimal and primarily serves as a vehicle for humor, with levels connected by jokes rather than a cohesive narrative.

Despite its simplicity, the game offers enjoyable moments and extras to explore after completing the main content.

- “This game has no story.”
- “The developers seem to have understood that the game was terrible, so they added a facerollingly easy 'story' mode so you don't have to play their game, and that's a good move if you ask me.”

- “I can't deny, however, that in the long run it got a bit tiring, even with the different gameplay sequences.”
