A downloadable game for Windows and Linux
THE WRONG WAY
"THE WRONG WAY" is a psychological horror game
BASED ON TRUE STORY
PLOT
It was supposed to be a simple camping trip. Two days in the woods with my closest friends. I had to leave early — work the next morning. So I drove back alone. That's when the GPS sent me the wrong way. The car broke down on a road I'd never seen before. No signal. No help. Just a motel I was never supposed to find.
GAMEPLAY
In The Wrong Way, you play as James — a regular guy on a weekend camping trip with his friends. What starts as a fun getaway slowly turns unsettling. When James leaves camp early and drives home alone, everything goes wrong. A dead car. An empty road. No signal. Explore campgrounds, dark roads, and quiet places where nothing feels quite right. Everyone you meet seems helpful. But nothing is what it seems. How far down the wrong road did you go — and can you find your way back?

bro is making such good games
Been a massive fan of the Fears to Fathom/Chilla's Art style of games and this felt very similar and That's a compliment! I stream spooky stuff all the time and had to play it on stream last night!
P.S If you ever need voice acting work done, I don't have experience lol BUT playing a character in one of these style games is on the bucket list!
P.S.S Will definitely be playing more from Zestos! Good work!

Enjoy this no-commentary, edited playthrough! If you liked the video, please rate the game and support the developer.
I really enjoyed the story and character dialogue. The overall plot was strong, but I was a bit confused about how the night campers, the guy who jump-started the car, the gas station attendant, and the motel guys were connected—or what their exact motivations were. It seemed like an elaborate, planned setup to target people, but the reasoning behind the group wasn't entirely clear.
As for gameplay, the final chase scene was a bit glitchy and took a few attempts to complete. Overall, a solid experience, and I’m looking forward to what you make next!
Thank you so much for playing! ❤️ I appreciate the feedback and I’m glad you enjoyed the game! More to come! 😊
Yo hey Zestos, I watched CaseOh play your games so I figured I'd give it a shot. Here we go. Don't stop making these games !
Thank you so much! ❤️ I’m really glad you enjoyed it! Thanks for playing!
will definitely be looking forward to what you create next!
