GROW
The island is full of townsfolk standing about in little groups. Walk into them and they fall in behind you. Most are worth one zombie, some five, a few ten.
You arrive with three. Sweep a street and you have thirty.

How to play
THE WHOLE GAME,
THE WHOLE GAME,
IN FIVE MOVES.
There is one mode and one island. You steer with a stick and you have one button. Everything else is a decision about who to walk into.
SWALLOW
Your horde is a circle. A horde at least a tenth bigger than yours can take it — but only once its circle covers a third of yours. A brush does nothing, and the smaller horde is always the faster one, so you can still run.
When a horde goes down, half of it joins the winner. The rest scatter as townsfolk, free for whoever gets there first.
SPLIT
Hit the button, or put a second finger down anywhere on the screen. Every part of you with at least 8 zombies throws half of itself forward at 560 units a second.
The halves are smaller, so they are faster, so they catch what the whole of you never could. They come back together after about eight seconds. Up to sixteen parts at once.
GAMBLE
Fourteen spiky green viruses lie on the grass. Roll a part of 80 or more over one and it bursts you into pieces thrown every which way — and pays anywhere from 5 to 500 zombies for the risk.
Too small to burst it? Sit on it. Nothing big enough to eat you can follow you there.
NOBODY GROWS FOREVER
Past 60 zombies a horde gets hungry and starts shedding them, faster the bigger it is. A big horde also walks up to 38% slower. As the island fills up, hunger pulls twice as hard.
The giant with the crown is leaking every second. That is your opening.
The one thing to learn
READ THE RING.
Every horde on the island wears a ring, and the ring is drawn for you. You never have to count anybody. One glance says run, take it, or leave it alone.
Red ring
That one can swallow you. Turn around, or split away from it — you are the faster horde, and it knows it.
Green ring
Smaller than you. Cover a third of it and it is yours: half of it joins you on the spot.
Plain ring
A shield is up. Nobody is eating anybody for a few seconds — every horde spawns behind one.

SPEED
8 sRun 45% faster. Catch what runs, escape what hunts.
MAGNET
15 sTownsfolk come running from far away.

Four of them can also be bought as a start: Feast Start, Rage Start, x10 Start and x50 Start begin a life with that power-up already running. Dear on purpose.
The island
IT NEVER STOPS.
One round island, 2,200 units across, with up to 60 players on it at a time and bots topping it up so it is never empty. There is no lobby to sit in and nothing to wait for.
You arrive small
Three zombies, a seven-second shield, and a spawn far away from the giants. What happens after that is entirely up to where you walk.
Picked up off the ground
RAGE · 10sSPEED · 8sMAGNET · 15sFEAST · 30sx2 x5 x10 x50
Up to thirty-four lie about at any moment. FEAST switches hunger off for thirty seconds, so a giant stays a giant. RAGE lets you swallow anyone you touch, even the biggest horde on the island. SPEED adds 45%. MAGNET pulls townsfolk to you from across the street. The multipliers make every townsperson count that many times over.
Boosts you arm before you go
Head StartMagnetShieldFeast StartRage Startx10 Startx50 Start
Bought with coins on the home screen, one of each per life: begin with 30 zombies instead of 3, carry the magnet for your whole life, or hold the spawn shield for 12 seconds instead of 7. The four premium starts are dearer, and begin a life with an island power-up already running: Feast, Rage, x10 or x50.
Everyone can see everyone
A live leaderboard with the top five and your own rank, a feed of who just swallowed whom, and a crown on the biggest horde out there. Being first makes you the target.
Fall, tap, walk again
Get swallowed and you get your results card: your biggest horde, your rank, who did it. Tap PLAY AGAIN and you are back on an island in about a second.
Second Chance
After you go down, a card offers you back exactly where you fell at your peak: as big as you were at your best moment this life. Eight seconds to decide. It is free on your very first life and free with the Zomb Pass; otherwise it is a rewarded ad you can always turn down.
Touch townsfolk and they fall in behind you.
Red means that horde can take you. Green means it is yours.
Roll 80 zombies onto a virus and burst for 5 to 500.
Your results, then PLAY AGAIN. No waiting.
Coins you win by playing buy the whole shop.

What money buys, and what it does not
Survival Zomb is free to play. This is the whole of it.
- Ads are rewarded and opt-in. You watch one because you asked for something: a Second Chance after you fall, double coins on the results card, or 150 free coins in the shop, three times a day. There is no ad you cannot decline.
- No forced ads. Nothing plays between lives, nothing plays when you open the app, and no ad ever interrupts a life.
- Coin packs are there if you would rather not wait for the coins. They are optional, and they buy the same things playing does.
- The Founder's Pack is an in-app purchase: 22,500 coins and the Founder hero skin, once per account.
- Everything else is earnable. Every horde skin, every boost and all but three hero skins are priced in coins you win by playing. Two of those three come with the Zomb Pass and one with the Founder's Pack — and all three are cosmetic. Nothing sold makes your horde bigger than anyone else's.
Optional subscription
