About Run With Zombies

Run With Zombies is a free survival game that runs in your browser and uses your real GPS location. Zombies spawn around you on a live map. To survive, you have to keep moving.

No app install required. Open it in your mobile browser, allow location access, and start running. The longer you stay ahead of the horde, the higher your score.

The game is designed for outdoor play. It works best in open areas where GPS signal is strong, such as parks, streets, and trails.

History

October 4, 2026 - Version 1.0.6 - Conquer spots

Explore shared points of interest marked by waving flags, including statues, monuments, gardens and parks. Visit a spot during a game to conquer it. Each spot has one owner: the latest confirmed visit wins, so another player can take it from you.

Play as a guest and log in after the game to save your claims along with your score and badges. See your owned spots in My Runs, compete in the Global Spot Ranking, and open Battle history to follow who conquered each spot and when.

October 2, 2026 - Version 1.0.5 - Zombies follow streets and paths

Zombies now follow streets and paths as they chase you.

September 16, 2026 - Version 1.0.4 - Badges

Earn badges as you run and track your progress. My Runs now shows the badges you have collected, and a separate panel lists the next badges you are working toward, with progress toward each one.

August 25, 2026 - Version 1.0.3 - Freeze and gun weapons

Weapon spots can now appear during a run. Freeze pickups charge Cryo Freeze so nearby zombies can be stopped for a short window, giving you space to recover or change route.

Gun pickups charge a short-range attack that eliminates nearby zombies and rewards each kill in the final score.

August 20, 2026 - Version 1.0.2 - Local run history and replay visualizer

My Runs lists finished runs saved in this browser, with pagination, useful score details, and a dedicated visualizer that can replay your route and the zombie horde.

Run routes and zombie replay data stay local to the browser. They are not uploaded to the server, and they can disappear if browser storage is cleared or you move to another device.

July 29, 2026 - Version 1.0.1 - Settings profiles

Settings now include named profiles for common run types. Pick a profile to automatically set horde size, zombie speed, and run duration.

Manual changes still work as before; if your settings no longer match a named profile, the selector shows Custom.

July 27, 2026 - Version 1.0.0 - Healing spots on map

Healing spots are temporary safe targets that appear on the map while you run. When your stamina is low, head toward one and reach its location before the horde catches up.

When you arrive at a healing spot, your survivor recovers stamina so you can keep moving, change route, and stay in the chase longer.
