Take a walk on the zombie side
You awaken to the familiar sound of shuffling feet and muffled moans… but something is different. There are zombies all around you, but they’re paying no attention to you. Even the smallest amount of light hurts your eyes. Also, your skin has turned green and you have an intense hunger that can only be satisfied by eating human brains.
You have your suspicions about what’s going on when you hear a moan among the crowd. It’s a moan but somehow you understand, “Hey, new zombie, want to grab some lunch and recruit new friends?”
It’s time to go on a “recruitment” spree in Brains, the virtual race where you use your real-world steps and exercise to chase down the only thing that can satisfy your hunger… braaaaiiins.
Brains is the first Mission in our Zombie Play series.

WOW, more fun than I was expecting. Played as a zombie and chased and “recuited” people along the way. Some of the scenes here were really funny. Would repeat as a zombie if they make more races like this! Grrr. Brains.

A fun twist. I wish it was more interactive, though.

This app is great! My family gets involved by encouraging me to walk. They’ve also tried getting me steps by “allowing” me to get them a snack, put away their laundry, etc. 🙂 Not to mention the extra walks that my fur-babies enjoyed. I’m looking forward to the next race!

I usually only run these types of races for the medals but I thought the app aspect of outbreak looked fun. There was a little learning curve for the game part but once I figured it out I loved it! I will definitely be doing more.
