🎬 Overview

The Wrong Guide is the official website for an atmospheric, story-driven psychological horror game currently in development for PC.

Built with Next.js, React, and TypeScript, the website combines cinematic presentation, narrative-driven content, multilingual navigation, and a dark visual identity inspired by the unsettling world of the game.

The experience extends beyond a conventional game landing page, using subtle visual effects and carefully crafted storytelling to reflect the central theme of the game: trusting the wrong guide.

Some directions lead you forward. Others lead you somewhere you were never meant to go.

🌒 About the Game

A father. A mysterious phone call. An abandoned hospital. And a guide that may not want you to escape.

You play as Mohsen, a father and nature explorer whose life takes an unexpected turn after a mysterious phone call leads him onto an empty desert highway.

He awakens inside an abandoned hospital where familiar rules no longer seem to apply. Strange notes, painted markers, distorted radio transmissions, and contradictory directions offer a path through the darkness.

But as the environment grows increasingly unfamiliar, one question becomes impossible to ignore:

What if the guide is the reason you are lost?

Architecture Principles

  • Separation of concerns: UI components, game content, translations, and routing are maintained independently.
  • Reusable components: Shared layout elements and interface components reduce duplication.
  • Centralized configuration: Common game data and locale-specific content are managed through dedicated configuration modules.
  • Localized navigation: Routing helpers provide consistent navigation across supported locales.
  • Maintainability: The structure supports extending the website as the game evolves.

The directory tree is a representative overview; individual files and folders may evolve during development.


🌐 Localization

The website is designed for an international audience, with support for five interface languages.

Locale Language Layout
en English LTR
fa Persian RTL
tr Turkish LTR
ja Japanese LTR
ru Russian LTR

The localization system uses next-intl for translations and locale-aware navigation.

UI translations are maintained in messages/, while game-specific content is organized separately to keep presentation, translated text, and shared data manageable.

Localized links should use the project's navigation helpers rather than manually constructing locale-prefixed URLs.
