You start outside a familiar square and the city changes its tone: cobblestones suddenly feel like a map of survival routes, alleys dare you to cut corners, and the River Corrib seems to push you toward the next objective.
Zombie Scavengers is a timed, self-guided scavenger hunt through Galway — one hour to gather supplies, complete challenges and rack up points using only your smartphone. The route threads through streets shaped by centuries of trade and seafaring; stone quays, the nearby Spanish Arch and 19th-century shopfronts give the city a layered, pragmatic character that rewards fast decisions.
Geology here is coastal: the estuary and Atlantic tides influence the grid of roads and alleys, while the broader county blends limestone plains and rolling hills to the east. Culture in Galway is immediate and human — street performers, pub banter and traditional music spill into public spaces and can be part of the backdrop as you race the clock.
Practical guidance: assemble a small team (up to ten), start with a charged phone and a portable battery, and pick a clear meeting point for check-in. Expect urban walking over cobbles and pavement; wear supportive shoes and weatherproof layers — Ireland’s weather can flip in an hour, and that hour is yours. Keep an eye on traffic and local businesses while you play. The game is family-friendly, accessible, and designed for all fitness levels. Finish with a pint or coffee in the city center to compare scores and swap the best detours.
