Zombies, Run!

This App looks amazeballs and is currently in pre-order and will be available for download and play REALLY soon. Check out the website here for more details!

Running Game & Audio Adventure

Zombies, Run! is an ultra-immersive running game for the iPhone, iPod Touch, and Android. We deliver the story straight to your headphones through orders and voice recordings - and back home, you can build and grow your base with the items you’ve collected.

Run Anywhere

Zombies, Run! works anywhere and at any speed. You can jog in a park, run along a beach, or walk along a trail, even on treadmills!

Keep the survivors alive

You automatically collect items like medicine, batteries, and ammo while running - but when you’re back home, who needs them more: the soldiers or the doctors? Which buildings need extra defenses? It’s up to you - and the bigger your base, the more missions you can play.

A World of Stories

Where did the zombies come from? What are the leaders of your base planning? There’s a deeper mystery to be uncovered, puzzles to be solved, websites to be discovered, documents to be viewed so you can learn the truth of what’s happened to the world.

Your Own Music

Choose your own custom playlists before you start running: the story unfolds in between your tracks through a series of dynamic radio messages and voice recordings.

Better Fitness Through Science

Zombies, Run! records the distance, time, pace, and calories burned of all your runs, and we’re planning RunKeeper integration. You can also hear audio notifications for time, distance, and pace during your run.

Workout Playlist Week 4! Enjoy!!   Hello Good Morning – This song will wake you up in the morning!!  I think it’s a great start to a workout playlist.  Gets you up and out the door, down the street, around the corner, and down a good stretch of the road/trail.  Icky Thump – This songs would be good from trudging up a hill methinks.  Or a mud run… Or if you feel like bobbin your head while you run. Rocketeer – this song is fun to sing because of the falscetto (sp?).   It makes you just want to glide along! “Where we go we don’t need roads” possible trail song?  I think so. Also talks about flying, which is always a sign of a good running song Outta Your Mind – This song makes my blood boil in a riot kind of way.  An adrenaline surging, hysteria inducing, rant of a song!  This will definitely wake you up. “Get Outta Your Mind!” Love Like Woe – This song makes me happy!  It’s great beat and catchy lyrics will make your athletic endeavors all the more enjoyable!  Cmon Catch Em By Surprise – This song is great! Great beat, fast lyrics, some techno sound, random encouragement yelled in the background (Cmon!).  Success guaranteed Injection – This powerful Rise Against song is good for a steady fast pace. Try picking up your run or cycling for the length of this song and go anaerobic!  Just an idea Beast Mode – This could be a good song for when you feel like quitting because it pumps you up so well. Who can wimp out when you hear the words “I’m in beast mode”?  No one. So listen to it.  Higher – This is a new personal favorite of mine! I’ve been listening to it on repeat for the last week.  Ah it reminds me so much of running because of that kindof euphoria you get when you really go hard. All of the Lights – This song has a good rhythm and the feel of a song that can put you in the zone and just go.  Plus Rihanna is awesome. Bleed it Out  - I feel like this is a classic athletic song but it is that because it’s awesome!  For those of you who haven’t heard it, you are in for a muscle twitching, sweat inducing, adrenaline rush of a song! Drop Down – This is awesome especially when it gets to the chorus! You just want to sing along and move! Hold It Against Me – Britney Spears is back with a punchy techno/pop song that is uber catchy and awesome to workout to. I Will Not Bow – This song makes anyone who hears it feel like a badass.  When the chorus comes on: “I will not bow! I will not break!” you get a surge of determination that propels you threw any grueling stage of any grueling sport!  Dreams Up – The start of this song is so soothing.  Good for when you need to relax and lose yourself.  The melody is so sweet.  Fast lyrics and beat keep you going but this song has a cool down quality too Time Flies – Great hip-hop song.  Also with a calming but upbeat quality like the last song. I love the lyrics!  Very motivational!  “What are you waiting for?” “Let’s change the game”
