Broken Age is a graphical point-and-click adventure game, where the player-controlled character can be directed to move about the screen, examine objects, and talk to non-player characters to learn more about the game world. The game features two playable characters, each located in separate worlds; the player can switch from one character to the other via the game's interface at any time, but otherwise these characters do not interact in any direct way. The game employs context-sensitive actions instead of using verb lists as early adventure games would use, as Schafer stated that in essence, "there really was always one verb, which was 'interact with'" and opted with the more modern approach. Each character has separate item inventories as they collect objects; items can then be used by dragging them onto context-sensitive areas on the screen or combined with other inventory items.

Vella (voiced by Masasa Moyo) is a young woman in a world that is ravaged by the Mog Chothra, a giant creature that is tamed by offering human sacrifices at their various "Maiden's Feasts". Vella is chosen to be one of those for her hometown's Feast, but postulates if they actually could kill the Mog Chothra and end these rituals. She finds a way to escape from the beast's attack, ending up in a distant land. She finds her way back to a nearby town, where they are preparing their own Feast, and discovers the Dead Eye God's temple, which turns out to be an ancient spaceship half-buried by the sand. She is able to awake its pilot from stasis, who helps her to rig the ship's scanning system to act as a weapon to attack the Mog Chothra. Vella's plan works and she is able to down the creature.

Shay (voiced by Elijah Wood) is a young man and seemingly the only passenger on a large spaceship. The ship's computer acts overly motherly to Shay, preventing him from learning or exploring the ship too much. The computer asserts he is part of "Project Dandelion", a last-ditch effort of his home planet to chose him as a survivor of his race before the planet's destruction and trying to find a home for him. When Shay sneaks into the vents, he finds a creature disguised as a wolf, Marek, that asserts that the computer has been telling him lies, and shows him that the galaxy is much more dangerous and that they need to save others. Marek guides Shay through various missions against the computer's control, trying to rescue a number of creatures at each location before their position is discovered by an enemy force. At end of one mission, the ship is attacked by an enemy force, and in the chaos of trying to survive, Shay is knocked unconscious.
