A downloadable game for Android

The Running Zombie is a thrilling 2D survival game where you play as a zombie trying to escape a war-torn city under constant military bombardment. Your mission is to survive waves of bombs and rockets as you journey through various locations—from suburbs, mountains, muddy fields, and villages, to an alien spaceship. However, the zombie's return to the city ends tragically when a nuclear bomb finally ends its journey.

Each zombie in the game was once a human—these aren't mindless monsters. After every death, you'll see the name of the zombie appear on the restart screen, changing with each life, adding a deeper narrative layer and emotional connection to the character.

Controlling your zombie in is simple and intuitive. Players guide the zombie by tapping on different parts of the screen, directing its movements to dodge bombs and avoid obstacles. Your goal is to survive as long as possible, avoiding airstrikes and rockets, while also evading angry villagers armed with pitchforks.

Collect health kits in the form of brains that fall from the clouds to restore your health and extend your survival. The game features a variety of threats that require quick reflexes and strategy:

  • Freezing bombs – slow down your zombie, making escape more difficult.
  • Poison bombs – gradually drain your health over time.
  • Molotov cocktails – create fiery obstacles.
  • Rockets – deal instant damage, destroying everything in their path.
  • Angry villagers – chase you down with pitchforks, adding an extra layer of tension.

Throughout the game, you'll traverse a series of diverse environments, each with its own challenges and hazards:

  • City – a war-ravaged urban landscape, filled with ruins and unpredictable traps.
  • Suburbs – a military-occupied area with constant bombing and attacks.
  • Mountains and mud – challenging terrain that slows your movement.
  • Villages – unfriendly places where locals don't want to see you survive.
  • Alien spaceship – a mysterious extraterrestrial vessel you encounter on your journey.

The game boasts a unique visual style, with 80% of its graphics generated using artificial intelligence. This gives The Running Zombie a distinct, surreal atmosphere and visual identity that sets it apart from other mobile games.
