Zombies are here… and they're hungry! You and your team will face a variety of challenges, obstacles and distance goals as you run (or walk) through a zombie-infested wasteland, helping other survivors and working to help those in need and rebuild society.

Robotica™
What happens when the world's richest man, Albus Mousse, builds a sentient A.I. and charges it with protecting humanity? It determines that the biggest threat to mankind is… mankind. Race to avoid capture while you look for a way to shut down the servers and free the people "helped" by the army of rogue robots.

Invasion™

Ratings and reviews

Probably great if you have an iPhone? I've tried playing several times because my extended family loves it (iPhones) 🙄 20,000 steps winds up being 8,000 if you're lucky with an android. Love pushing myself for the exercise but don't love that I pay to lose because the developer can't figure out how to make it work on all operating systems.

Absolutely hate that I have to turn my phone to use. It's a fun idea but I wish there were some sabotage elements in the game play as it's pretty obvious which team is going to win after even the first few days. Doesn't sync the best with my step app. I've done 3 challenges through my work and it's starting to get redundant. Fun idea but could use more interaction.

Nice concept, some flaws. Every time I have added an "outside" activity the game would say that I was capped for 5 days. Every time. Whether I had put it without having done anything else but my daily walking. If I can't actually use what I did, I'm not going to get very far. It would be nice if there was a way to manually insert numbers. Once I finish this first challenge, I doubt I'll do another one.
