"Machi" literally means "district", "urban area". The game was called by their creators a sound novel.
The idea of the game is to allow players to experience five days in the life of eight different characters. They all live somewhere in the city, each preoccupied with their own problems. Their paths could cross without them realizing it. At any point in the game, you can switch between characters, but when you do, the other character's day or time of day matches the one you currently have.
The eight protagonists are: Keima Amemiya, a policeman; Jintaro Umabe, an actor; Masami Ushio, gang member; Yoshiko Hosoi, with no particular profession (the game's only female protagonist); Masashi Shinoda, a student; Ryuji Takamine, a deserter; Fumiyasu Ichikawa, writer; and Yohei Tobisawa, a high school student. You control the characters by making decisions for them: where to go next, how to respond to another character, etc. In many cases, there are bad decisions that lead to an untimely end (bad ending). The story is presented through text (without voices) and still shots of live actors and locations, with occasional short animated sequences.
