Within the computer terminals are news reports and personal logs of the last days of humanity, driven to extinction by a lethal virus that had been dormant in Earth's permafrost and released as a result of global warming.

Messages left by other AIs present varying views of the artificial worlds and of Elohim, with some stating that Elohim's words should be doubted, while the Milton Library Interface, a text conversation program found on various computer terminals, encourages the android to defy Elohim's commands. Some AIs it encounters act as Messengers, unquestioningly serving Elohim and guiding the android through the puzzles. As the android progresses, it becomes evident that these worlds exist only in virtual reality, and that it, like other androids it encounters, are separate artificial intelligence (AI) entities within a computer program. A disembodied voice calling itself Elohim instructs the android to explore the worlds he has created for it, and to solve the various puzzles to collect sigils, but warns it not to climb a tower at the centre of these worlds. The player character, an unnamed android, awakes in a serene environment. In addition to these puzzle elements, the player can explore the open environments to find computer terminals that include additional narrative and further puzzles, as well as signs from previous adventurers in the world in the form of QR codes left as graffiti on various walls, and holograms that once collected play audio recordings. The player can also request 'messengers' during puzzles, which are androids similar to themselves, (though not physically present), that once awakened can provide a one-time hint for the puzzle. While it is necessary to collect all the sigils to complete the game properly, the game's world structure, featuring three main worlds that act as hubs and a centralized area that connects these three, allows the player to leave puzzles for later and try other puzzles. Special star sigils can be found by unique solutions to some puzzles, allowing the player to access additional puzzles. Once the sigils for a given door or system have been obtained, they must then use the sigils to assemble a tiling puzzle to unlock that system. The player's progress through the game is limited by doors or other security systems that require the collection of a number of specific sigil pieces. Later, the player gains access to a device that can create a time recording of their actions, such that they can then interact with this recording to complete tasks, such as having the clone stand atop a switch to keep it activated for some time. Boxes let the player climb to higher levels or to block the path of drones, among other factors, and large fans that can launch the player or other objects across the puzzle.

Portable crystalline refractors allow the player to activate light-based switches. As the player collects sigils and completes more puzzles, new puzzle elements become available. Drones and turrets can be disabled using portable jammer units, which can also disable force-field walls that block the player's path. These include computer-controlled drones that will detonate if they are too close to the player, killing them, and wall-mounted turrets that will shoot down the player if they get too close if the player dies this way, they are reset to the start of the specific puzzle. The puzzles require the player to collect tetromino-shaped ' sigils' by navigating enclosed areas and overcoming obstacles within them. These environments interlock greenery, desert, and stone ruins with futuristic technology. The player takes the role of a robot with a seemingly human consciousness as they explore a number of environments that include over 120 puzzles. The Talos Principle is a narrative-based puzzle game, played from a first- or third-person perspective. Other names taken from mythology and religion and used in the game include Elohim, Gehenna, Samsara, and Uriel. It takes its name from Talos of Greek mythology, a giant mechanical man who protected Europa in Crete from pirates and invaders. The game features a philosophical storyline. A DLC entitled Road to Gehenna was released on 23 July 2015. Virtual reality-enabled versions for the Oculus Rift and HTC Vive were released on 18 October 2017.
