Zombies, Run! (running app)

hated running but this app is totally awesome!!

I've been looking into this - does it give you a rough time length of each mission? I know from what you've said you can keep running as long as you'd like and continue to pick up items, but I'd hate to use it during a morning jog and only get to the "OH CRAP" part of the story when I need to be finishing up.

SO, its worth the $8 then?

Just downloaded this on Android the other day. First chance for a run tonight so I'll be giving mission 1 a go...

Can you piggyback missions together? Or just start the 2nd mission straight away? Or do you need to use the stuff you've picked up before you can go again?

I did the last 10 min of mission 1, played with my phone to start mission 2. Once I was done, I kept running even though mission was completed. Zombies still came and there was still a story going on for me, but not mission related.... I still haven't done anything with my items. I'm hoping I'll be led or asked to do something in an upcoming mission.

To a pp, if you only have an allotted time to run, you can stop your mission and pick it up another day. I had to do that with mission 1 in fact. It's fun and my husband made me a scary playlist which is motivating. I hate this sort of genre but honestly, I'm looking forward to Mission 3 already!

I've done 2 missione and I'd say they were each worth at least $2 a piece and there are many more to go. It's like (better?) than an audiobook.

I'm so confused... is it really how it ends?? :noway:

Let's be careful with spoilers here people.....

Oh, also there are meant to be multiple 'seasons' being created so there should be more coming.

Can't wait until it comes to Android!

You're right... I wouldn't want to spoil it for other people, I'm just not sure if mission 23 is indeed the last one of season 1.

No details on the story needed...

$8 to get excited about running was, for me, well worth it. I've gotten literally hours of enjoyment out of this app. And I also ask myself how often I spend $4 on a latte or something equally worthless and yeah, for me it is.

No, it's not! More are being released, 30 total for season 1. Just wait for an update coming later this month.

Also, SO EXCITED for this (as part of the June update):

ZombieLink

Seeing your run on a map is cool, but you know what’s even cooler?

Playing back zombie chases to see how much you speed up when the horde is nipping at your heels. Seeing all story and game events plotted on the map. Discovering which music tracks make you run faster and slower. Personalising and annotating your run history with fact and fiction. Visiting and improving your base, browsing the Codex and sharing your runs, all online.

That’s what’s cool. And guess what? It’s all free and it works across all platforms. We’ll be supporting ZombieLink on iOS later this month and Android players will have it working from today, with map view coming later this month."

There are 30 missions, but only 23 story missions, and 7 supply missions.

Knowing that it ends there for now.......... how am I supposed to wait for season 2 now?!? lol

I'm going to download this tonight. Sounds awesome!

robinskv

Used it for the first time tonight and I really liked it! I hate running, but this kept me going a lot longer than I normally would have and made it enjoyable. Totally worth the money!!

Just a quick note, if that happens and it doesn't reconnect playlist or story line right away after a call or any interruption, you can hit pause at bottom left and resume, without restarting mission
