You step out onto Monument Circle and the city seems to dare you—streets humming, storefronts watching—as an app hands you a list of survival items and challenges.
This one-hour urban scavenger hunt turns Indianapolis into a gameboard. Using your phone, you’ll chase prompts across downtown blocks, from the Circle’s limestone monument out along the Cultural Trail and into the colorful alleys of Mass Ave. The game riffs on Indy’s history: the city’s 1820s grid and the canal that once powered commerce become backdrops to timed challenges and photo tasks.
Geology here is subtle: flat Midwestern plains give way to the artificial curves of the Central Canal and reclaimed riverfront greenways. Culture shows up in public art, food carts, and theaters that line the route—each clue nudges you to look at familiar places sideways.
Practical guidance: download and test the Zombie Scavengers app before you start, and keep your phone charged. The route is entirely walkable on paved city sidewalks with brief detours; expect about 1 hour of standing and strolling. You’ll play at your own pace, with a remote host available via chat if you need help.
Safety and strategy matter—use crosswalks, watch for bikes on the Cultural Trail, and choose daylight for easier navigation. This is a social, low-impact way to explore Indianapolis while competing with other teams across the country, collecting points for items and themed challenges. Whether you’re a local or a visitor, the game is equal parts sightseeing and quick urban problem-solving.
