Release Date: August 5, 2014
Unusual combination of classic roguelike production with elements of adventure and puzzle games. The game was developed by Spry Fox, an independent studio so far known mainly from social games. It was inspired by Robert Frost's poem of the same title. The action of the game takes place in mystical forest full of dangers and the player becomes a guard whose task is to find lost children.
Road Not Taken is a roguelike puzzle game about surviving life’s surprises. You play as a ranger adventuring through a vast, unforgiving forest in the aftermath of a brutal winter storm, rescuing children who have lost their way. Procedurally-generated levels deliver a limitless supply of possibilities to explore and challenges to overcome. Your actions will influence not only your own story, but that of the villagers you hope to befriend and the town you call home.

Road Not Taken is an fun mix of puzzling and roguelike, but it doesn't have much staying power.

Road Not Taken is an insidiously clever randomly generated puzzle game that stumbles sometimes around awkward design.

Road Not Taken treads an unconventional trail, and is mostly better for it.
