You step off the curb into Lakewood with your phone as a weapon and a map as a challenge. The app pings, the first objective flashes, and suburban streets—lined with maples and storefronts—become a grid of possible survival caches. Traffic hums; park benches dare you to rest; the lakes watch as you move.
Lakewood sits on New Jersey’s Atlantic Coastal Plain, its low-lying lakes carved by glacial and fluvial action and later shaped by 19th- and 20th-century development. Founded as a township in the late 1800s, downtown grew around Lake Carasaljo and a compact main street culture that still shows in brick facades and neighborhood parks. Today the town blends shoreland geology with a lively, diverse community, giving each block its own character and clues.
The game moves at your pace: urban exploration, puzzle-solving and friendly competition against teams nationwide. Expect flat pavement, short street blocks, and quick turns—this is low-elevation, walkable terrain best tackled on foot or by short transit hops.
Practical guidance: download and update the Zombie Scavengers app before you arrive, fully charge your device and carry a small battery pack. Schedule your hour outside peak commute times to avoid congestion, and use public transit or street parking near Lake Carasaljo as your staging area. Follow local signage, respect private property, and keep water and comfortable shoes on hand. With an hour and a bit of strategy, you’ll collect points, complete themed challenges, and leave with a snapshot of Lakewood you wouldn’t get from a map alone.
You’ll receive a message before your start time with instructions and a link to the app; open the link, follow the on-screen steps, and begin when ready.
