Why we expect it: A clever fitness idea with a clear hook, a real 5K plan, and a privacy-first design.

In short

Deadstride is a health and fitness app that turns walks and runs into a zombie chase along real street routes. An 8-week beginner plan builds toward a 5 km run, and the app tracks distance, pace, steps, calories and routes. It stands out for its 3D audio, which lets players hear where each zombie is through headphones.

About

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.
