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.

I did one of group challenges with my job and found it really addictive and motivating to put my steps in everyday. I signed up for this race after so I could play as a zombie. I finished in 21 days and got that really cool Brains medal. I’m gonna try and collect them all!
