Your actions will influence not only your own story, but that of the villagers you hope to befriend and the town you call home.Story Details: Each time you play Road Not Taken, you're likely to experience a very different story. The paths you take will change; the relationships you pursue will twist in ways you did not expect. Which, as it happens, is just like real life.
