Any objects picked up by the player are stored in an inventory, and can be combined with other objects in the inventory, given to NPCs, or used on objects in an environment. At certain points in the game, the player can choose how to complete puzzles and situations while most are optional, and have little impact on the main story, one choice towards the end affects the ending that players can achieve upon completing the game. While right-clicking objects/NPCs allows them to examine them, left-clicking allows the character to interact with it, either by taking an object or using it and talking to NPCs. Each chapter sees the player using one of the game's three protagonists, to solve puzzles within a chapter. The game operates on a typical point-and-click interface used in several adventures, in which players use their mouse to explore and interact with the various environments their characters move through.

The game's story covers 10 chapters and focuses on three characters who live in the future city of Newton which is governed by an autonomous AI administrator, each of whom is faced with a complex matter, but soon find themselves caught up in a conspiracy surrounding the city's AI, including murder and hidden truths about its creation.
