The game's story is largely criticized for being nonexistent or poorly developed, with many players describing it as dull and simplistic, lacking depth and engagement. While some reviews highlight a gripping narrative in specific missions, the overall consensus is that the game feels like a repetitive mobile port with minimal storytelling, overshadowed by aggressive monetization tactics and grinding mechanics.
- “Pure Sniper incorporates some of the best storytelling in any game I've ever seen.”
- “The gripping storyline with the in-depth characters that have their own criminal backgrounds feeds several emotions into the player while playing.”
- “The best sniping to date is paired with the story, as the protagonist assassinates several different characters all posing a threat to the greater good and progression of society.”
- “It's a mobile game, very simple, repetitive, and easy with no real story.”
- “No story, pointless AI, simplistic, clearly a port of a game for a phone, horrible pricing and who wants to wait 8 minutes (correction replayed, energy is now at 12 minutes) per energy like really?”
- “I love the nonexistent story you try to pretend into existence.”

The gameplay is generally described as rudimentary, with a significant restriction due to an energy system that forces players to either wait or spend in-game currency to continue playing, which detracts from the experience. However, some users praise specific mechanics, such as gunplay, highlighting them as exceptional compared to other games. Overall, while the core gameplay has potential, the monetization strategies and energy limitations negatively impact player engagement.
- “The gameplay is great and the gun mechanics are the best I've ever seen in a video game, and I have 1,000 hours on Escape from Tarkov.”
- “The actual gameplay is okay, but it's really rudimentary.”
- “The game is alright, but they restrict your gameplay by 'energy' which you must spend every round. You get 10 full energy by leveling up one level, but they have also made it so you'll not reach it, so either you'll have to wait 10 minutes per energy bar or cash out 100 gold (which is crazy) to refill your energy.”
- “It's shoving them in your face every time you do something. The actual gameplay is okay, but it's really rudimentary.”
- “The soda mechanic backfired hilariously: instead of encouraging me to pay money to keep playing, it acts as a way to say 'Alright, I've played enough for now, time to go do other things.'”

The humor in the game is characterized by a mix of absurdity and irony, with mechanics that unintentionally encourage players to take breaks and lighthearted charges against serious offenses, such as "selling fireworks to minors" alongside more grave accusations. While these elements provide comedic relief, the overall enjoyment may diminish without the option to spend real money.
- “The soda mechanic backfired hilariously: instead of encouraging me to pay money to keep playing, it acts as a way to say 'Alright, I've played enough for now, time to go do other stuff.'”
- “The charges against the targets are serious, but there's always one silly charge for humor, like 'selling fireworks to minors,' where the first charge was 'torture resulting in death.'”
- “It's actually quite funny, but without 'gold' - real money - the fun of the game is lost.”
