The story in Pureya is minimal and serves primarily as a backdrop for the gameplay, reminiscent of classic Mario narratives. While it features a brief "story mode" with only two cutscenes and a completion time of about four hours, the overall plot is considered nonsensical yet enjoyable. The game's atmosphere is engaging, but the simplicity of the minigames can lead to frustration, overshadowing the narrative experience.
- “But despite that, the atmosphere that the story has permeates it all.”
- “With a duration of approximately 4 hours in story mode, it seems to offer a satisfying content experience for a game of this type.”
- “Pureya is a game that changes every 10 seconds, that is to say it is a game of several games, that draws some inspiration from the Wario Ware saga, more in the general concept of the minigames, because in the execution they are very different.”
- “The story is like that of a Mario game, just an excuse to go and do the stuff that you do.”
- “Pureya also features a 'story mode,' which, based on my personal experience, took me approximately 4 hours to complete, although it consists of only two cutscenes.”
- “Pureya is a game that changes every 10 seconds, that is to say it is a game of several games, that draws some inspiration from the Wario Ware saga, more in the general concept of the minigames, because in the execution they are very different compared to Wario Ware where you play a collection of minigames in each character at the pace of the story that tells you between cinematics, which here there are also but to a lesser extent.”
