These are paid iPhone and iPad apps that have been made available for free for a limited time by their developers. There is no way to tell how long they will be free. These sales could end an hour from now or a week from now — obviously, the only thing we can guarantee is that they were free at the time this post was written. If you click on a link and see a price listed next to an app instead of the word “get,” it is no longer free. The sale has ended. If you download the app, you will be charged.

From the diary of the leading genetic engineer Anton Rasputin:

November 24th, 2016, 2.35 pm
It has been an ordinary day: professor told me to pick some documents related to the new genetic mutation project from the department. On my way there I met our new grad student Vladimir. He seemed easygoing and bold to me.

November 26, 2016, 6.12 pm
It’s my mom’s birthday today and I decided to leave work early, in order to drop by the shop and buy her a huge bucket of roses. I hope this year she won’t invite that arrogant bloke from Saint-Petersburg.

December 12, 2016, 7.34 am
Haven’t slept all night. Been having nightmares. Blood and screams everywhere. I’m scared.

December 12, 2016, 1.45 pm
It seems unlikely that I will dine with that new thin secretary. We are having a sudden inspection and everyone must remain where they are.

(No date)
Gosh! They are all dead! Everyone of them. I must get to the west wing as soon as possible and find Theodore. There has been a gun in the vault. I’ll make use of it.

About the survival game:
Unravel this mysterious story that occurred in the country’s leading genetic engineering institute. What happened to your colleagues? How to avoid falling a victim to bloodthirsty monsters, mutants and zombies? Who is responsible for this nightmare? Who commands these walking dead? Prove that you and your friends are worthy to wear the title of Zombie hunters!
