Outrun the Dead
Run for your life
Free · In‑App Purchases · Designed for iPad. Not verified for macOS.
A zombie survival exercise game — your real runs decide if you live or die.
The zombie apocalypse is here. Your only way out? Run.
Outrun the Dead turns your real-world runs into a fight for survival. Every step you take powers your story in a post-apocalyptic world where skipping a run has real consequences — and pushing yourself is the only way to keep your people alive.
Heart-rate driven gameplay:
Connect a Bluetooth heart rate monitor, Apple Watch, or Wear OS device. The game reacts to your effort in real time — slow down, and the horde closes in. Push harder, and you pull ahead. The music and audio intensity adapt to match.
An AI companion who knows your story:
You're not alone out there. A survivor companion runs alongside you, remembers your history, and reacts to your wins and your worst days. Talk to them between runs — they'll remember.
A story shaped by your fitness:
Every run writes a new chapter. Hit a personal best and the story celebrates it. Miss a day and someone in your group might fall. Your real-world effort is the plot.
Collect gear and scrap:
Earn scrap currency on every run and discover gear out in the world. Craft and upgrade equipment to keep your survivor prepared for what's ahead.
Survive together:
Form a group with friends. Your activity keeps the group safe — and their runs can save you when life gets in the way. Nudge a teammate who's gone quiet before it's too late.
Features:
- Real-time GPS run tracking with distance, pace, and duration
- Heart rate monitoring via Bluetooth, Apple Watch, and Wear OS

Whether you run every day or need that extra push to get off the couch, Outrun the Dead gives you a reason to lace up. The dead don't rest — and neither should you.
