4. Zombies, Run
This is a free app for those who enjoy taking walks or runs. During your walk or run, you are given different objectives, have to escape from zombies, and go on missions. There are also exercises given that you can do indoors if you'd rather not go outside! This is a really great app for those who want to stay in shape or get in some exercise during the quarantine.
