Zombies, Run!

I recently purchased Zombies, Run! I've been wanting it since I heard NPR report about it in 2012.It was originally 7.99 so I was super excited when I found it for 3.99.  After reading more about it, it seems that the 3.99 is the initial cost but then you have to purchase in-game 
Items in order to get the entire story.   Lame.  

The first mission war basically a mission to learn the backstory.  As you run, you gather items to purchase buildings and expand the base.  If zombies are enabled, you can be chased by zombies and have to outrun them.  Fortunately (for me), if you can't outrun them, it's not game over-you just keep running.  If you do not outrun the zombies, you lose items.  

Overall, it is a fun game and for those of us who need incentives to run, it provides an interesting storyline that will make you want to run again, just to see how your friends in Abel Township are doing.  

Here's a link to the story on NPR:
