The story in Nite Team 4 is considered barebones and somewhat weak, with a simplistic narrative that struggles to maintain player immersion despite its realistic portrayal of hacking tools and techniques. While experienced players may find the basic storyline easy, the game's navigation and mission presentation can be confusing, detracting from the overall storytelling experience. Despite these shortcomings, players appreciate the engaging gameplay and the challenge of uncovering hidden elements within the missions.

- “You use real exploits and real vulnerabilities with real tools in a controlled environment with a silly story.”
- “It's a lot more believable than most games regarding how you might perform exploits, but don't expect to maintain your suspension of disbelief story-wise.”
- “Displaying all the missions on a single web page that get unlocked as you move in the Myst-like navigation interface is both confusing and terrible from a story perspective.”
