About

Deadstride

Real zombies. Real streets. Your legs. Deadstride turns every run or walk into a chase. A horde appears in the streets around you and follows you through the actual road network. Keep moving, pick your turns, and don't let them close the gap. • A REAL CHASE — The zombies follow real streets, cut corners and close in. You lose them by running and turning, not by standing still. • SURVIVE THE 5K — An 8-week beginner plan. Weeks 1 and 2 are walked, then the horde's top speed rises week after week until you can last 5 km. Caught? You are bitten and you keep going — three bites and the session is to redo. • PLAYED BY EAR — Voice callouts and zombie sounds in 3D: with headphones you hear where each one is. Walkers moan, runners snarl, clickers click. Dark ambient music rises as they get close. • WAVES, BONUSES, SHELTERS — Adrenaline, blackouts, purges and risky crates on the street. Shelters hide you for the time you earned by running. • RUN OR WALK — Two modes, each tuned to your pace. The horde is always calibrated to you. • YOUR PROGRESS — Distance, time, pace, steps, calories, weekly streak, and every run with its route. • SHARE YOUR CLOSEST CALL — Turn the moment a zombie was three metres away into a vertical video. • LOCK SCREEN — A Live Activity shows the wave and the nearest zombie while your phone is in your pocket. No account. No ads. Your runs stay on your phone. Safety first: the game is played by ear. Watch the road, use crossings and respect traffic lights. Lace up. They're already coming.
