## What is Run or Rot?

The outbreak is outside. Your mission is a real run.

Run or Rot turns every deployment into a tactical survival patrol. Base Command tracks your GPS route, feeds you radio orders through your headphones, and pushes you to sprint when the horde closes in—or hold still when stealth is the only way out.

This is not a tap-to-run game. You move in the real world. The game moves with you.

HOW A DEPLOYMENT WORKS
• Initiate deployment and head out on foot or on a run
• Follow Base Command audio cues—sprint, freeze, evade, or push pace
• Collect supplies, rescue survivors, and clear infected threats along your route
• Extract alive, debrief, and upgrade your base for the next patrol

OUTBREAK MODES
• Recon — lighter threat density for recovery days
• Standard — balanced patrols for daily play
• Extinction — maximum pressure for experienced operatives

BASE COMMAND META
Build out your sector between runs. Upgrade facilities, craft and equip gear, assign survivors, unlock loadout presets, and stack daily directives with weekly operations. Hold your deployment streak to keep the sector secure.

BUILT FOR RUNNERS
• HealthKit workout tracking
• Apple Watch companion support
• Audio-only mode—eyes on the road, ears on command
• Walk patrol and HIIT interval modes
• Live route map, personal records, and deployment log
• Enhanced commander voice for clearer radio briefings

COMPETE & CO-OPERATE
• Game Center leaderboards and personal ghost routes
• Import squad rival routes from friends
• SharePlay co-op deployments—watch each other’s backs in real time

WHY YOU’LL KEEP COMING BACK
Daily directives. Season operations. Sector fog to clear. Mastery badges. Boss encounters. Safehouse holds. Emergency flares. Night extractions. Every patrol feeds a longer campaign—not just a single session.

GET STARTED
New operatives receive 3 complimentary full deployments, including a guided Tutorial Patrol. After that, Commander Clearance unlocks unlimited deployments, weekly commander directives, bonus XP, subscriber gear, and full co-op access.

Run or Rot requires location access during deployments. Health data is optional but recommended for pace and workout tracking. Continued use of GPS in the background may reduce battery life.

Subscription required for unlimited access after free deployments are used. Payment will be charged to your Apple ID account. Subscription automatically renews unless canceled at least 24 hours before the end of the current period. Manage subscriptions in Account Settings.

Lace up. Deploy. Hold the line—or rot.
