Roguelike puzzler Road Not Taken launches on PlayStation 4 on 6th August 2014, developer Spry Fox has announced.

A Vita version launches later this autumn, Spry Fox boss David Edery wrote on the PlayStation blog.

In Road Not Taken you play a magical ranger who must save lost children in a forest comprised of a series of single-screen puzzles.

Each screen's exit is blocked and you have to sort out what to do to unlock it. Given that you're a magic wizard, you can levitate any object and toss it around.

However, every action you take depletes your stamina, and when that's all gone it's game over. No restarts. No continues.
