A chant of footsteps, an app pinging with a new objective, and the sprawl of Nottingham laid out like a playground of survival — that’s the opening act of the Zombie Scavenger Hunt. Teams fan out from the city centre, darting through cobbled lanes of the Lace Market and across the broad sweep of Old Market Square while a remote host nudges you through challenges and scores.
The route threads modern Nottingham with its harder-edged past: Victorian lace factories, the sandstone hollows that hide the City of Caves, and constant whispers of the Robin Hood tales that color local identity. Underfoot the city sits on soft Triassic sandstone, which gave rise to its famous subterranean caves and the compact urban alleys you’ll use to outmaneuver rival teams.
Expect a one-hour, app-driven walking game where strategy matters more than speed. The app lists scavenger items and zombie-themed challenges you can complete in any order to score points; a remote host monitors progress and can assist via chat.
Practical guidance: start with a fully charged smartphone and comfortable walking shoes; plan a loop around the Lace Market, Old Market Square and along the riverside to maximize finds. The game is family-friendly and stroller-accessible but watch for pedestrian traffic in busy shopping streets. Bring layers and a portable charger in cool or wet months, and leave large backpacks behind to keep mobility sharp.
This is urban exploration with a playful, tactical twist — a way to see Nottingham’s lanes and legends while racing to survive the fictional apocalypse.
The game is designed to last about 60 minutes, though groups can take a little longer if they pause for photos or breaks.
Yes — you’ll need the Zombie Scavengers app or the provided game link and a charged smartphone to play.
