Zombie Run!

Using the phones GPS, this application places zombies at random spots in a map. The player can then walk/run a certain route in his neighborhood, while trying to avoid the zombies.

The zombies are just colored sprites, yet the game is truly fun. It brings me back to the days when I was young and the kids from around the neighborhood would get together and play man hunt.
