Road Not Taken

It's a good game.

I regularly come back to this one because it's simple and short, but still engaging.

Great for a tough puzzle game, very easy to pick up and put down whenever. While some of the achievements are OUTRAGEOUSLY difficult, they are super rewarding. I originally played this game on console, before buying another copy on PC. Don't let the difficulty get to you, once you learn how it works, it becomes manageable. One of my fav games OOT.

It's a fun and unique puzzle game with a nice aesthetic.

I really enjoyed the overall feel of this game, and the puzzles have a good range from easy to difficult Also the lore is intriguing

I didn't like it. Clunky gameplay, only 30 fps no real options menu. I think this game was on PlayStation plus a long time ago on the ps4 maybe. It should've stayed their.

Road Not Taken surprised me. At first, I expected something lightweight or forgettable, but it quickly revealed a deeper emotional and mechanical core. The puzzle system is clever, the visual style is striking, and the small narrative beats—especially around rescuing children and the emotional toll it takes—resonate more than I expected. I’m early in, but I want to go deeper. This feels like a game that earns its emotional weight slowly, and I’m ready to see where the road leads.

If you enjoy figuring things out without a proper tutorial, then this is a decent game.

I just didn't find it fun. The mechanic of picking things up and throwing them doesn't really interest me, and getting procedurally screwed over wasn't so much a challenge that made me go, "Ah, I bet I can overcome this with better prep!" as it was, "Damn, I can't get this puzzle to a solution without dying because I was too unlucky." It's one thing in roguelikes if I die because I made a mistake, but in this one, I sometimes died just because there was a puzzle that needed large shrubbery pieces from a room two screens away, and there was a black ghost between, and trying to get the giant shrubbery to the right place became so tedious... I might try and unlock another achievement or two just so this doesn't drag my average down, but I genuinely wasn't having fun with the game after a couple hours, and I'll only play it more so I at least have a slightly better percentage.
