Scavenger Hunt in Myrtle Beach by Zombie Scavengers
Myrtle Beach becomes your game board in this app-led zombie survival hunt. You and your team search for useful items around the city, tackle zombie-themed challenges, and build a score instead of following a fixed sightseeing route. I like the freedom to choose your own order, and I like that a remote host can help through the app.
The $20 team price covers up to 10 people, which can be a good deal for a family or group of friends. The tradeoff is that you must use your own smartphone, and the activity gives you a game rather than a guided introduction to Myrtle Beach.
Key Points to Know

- One $20 ticket covers up to 10 players, so the price works best when your whole group plays together.
- Your route is up to you: find the listed survival items in any order and choose how far to walk.
- The app tracks answers and points, with rankings that let you compare your score with teams across the country.
- A remote guide is available by chat for the one-hour activity if you need help.
- You start and finish at 1110 N Ocean Blvd, with no private transportation included.
- The hunt is self-guided and private, so only your own group takes part.
Turning Myrtle Beach Into a Survival Game
The central idea is simple: the zombie apocalypse has arrived, and Myrtle Beach is your supply zone. The app gives you a list of items needed for survival. You search for them around the city, submit your answers, and collect points.
This is not a traditional walking tour with a guide leading you from one landmark to the next. There is no set sequence of stops. You can find the items in any order and use your own strategy to decide where to go first.
That freedom changes the feel of the outing. You are not waiting for a group to gather or following someone else’s pace. If your team wants to move quickly, you can. If you want to pause and debate the next move, you can do that too.
The game also gives you zombie-themed challenges to complete along the way. These challenges add variety, since you are not simply checking off items from a list. Your team must decide which tasks are worth the time and how to build the highest possible score.
I would think of the experience as a short, competitive city game rather than a sightseeing tour. It may help you notice your surroundings, but its main purpose is teamwork, problem-solving, and a bit of silly survival drama.

What Happens During the One-Hour Hunt

You begin at 1110 N Ocean Blvd in Myrtle Beach. After booking, you receive confirmation, and the activity uses a mobile ticket. You need to bring your own smartphone because no activity-owned phone is provided.
The app supplies the instructions and keeps the game moving. You use it to view the survival items, submit answers, complete challenges, and follow your score. Since the activity is self-guided, the phone is both your rulebook and your scorecard.
From the starting point, your group searches for items around the city. The supplied details do not provide a fixed list of landmarks or a set route, so you should not expect a detailed stop-by-stop tour of Myrtle Beach. The appeal is choosing your own path.
A smart team will want to set a plan before scattering. Decide who handles the phone, who watches for possible answers, and who keeps an eye on the clock. Since the activity lasts about one hour, a little organization can save time.
You do not need to complete the items in a particular order. That is useful if one possible answer is close by while another would require a longer walk. It also means your group can adjust its route as you go instead of committing to a rigid itinerary.
The activity ends back at the meeting point. Private transportation is not included, and the experience is described as a walking activity, so you should be ready to make your way around on foot rather than being driven between search areas.
The App, Answers, and Scoring

The app does more than display instructions. It tells you what to find, records your submissions, awards points, and shows your team’s position in the rankings.
One practical detail matters here: if an answer is incorrect, it is deleted and you receive a notification. That means you should pay attention to the app after submitting an answer instead of assuming every entry has been accepted.
A team can also compare its score with other teams across the country. This gives the activity a second layer. You can play casually, treating the hunt as a reason to walk around together, or you can take the competition seriously and try to maximize every point.
The nationwide rankings are most useful for groups that enjoy a scoreboard. If your family simply wants an easy outing, the ranking may not matter much. If your friends like timed challenges and friendly competition, it gives the hour a clear goal.
Because answers and points are handled through the app, one phone can be enough for a group that stays together. The price is per team, not per person, and one team may include up to 10 players. That makes it unnecessary to buy separate tickets for each member of the same group.
If your party splits up, you should think carefully about how you will manage the phone and responses. The supplied information confirms that one team may have up to 10 people, but it does not explain how multiple phones or divided subgroups function. The simplest plan is to stay together and use one team device.
The Remote Survival Guide
Although the outing is self-guided, you are not completely on your own. A remote interactive survival guide is available through chat during the one-hour activity.
This is a useful middle ground. You do not have a guide walking beside you, so you keep control of the route and pace. At the same time, you have a contact if you need help with the app or the game.
Do not expect a live local guide to provide a running commentary about Myrtle Beach. The guide’s role is tied to the game and its survival instructions. That distinction is important when deciding what you are booking.
The remote format also suits groups that prefer privacy. Only your party participates, rather than joining a larger mixed group. You can joke, debate, and make your own decisions without trying to keep up with strangers.
The private setup is especially helpful for families and groups of friends. It keeps the tone informal, though the quality of the outing will depend partly on how willing your group is to take the game seriously.

Is the $20 Price a Good Deal?

At $20 per group, the value depends almost entirely on your group size. A party of 8 to 10 people pays very little per person for an hour of organized entertainment. Even a smaller group may find the price fair if it enjoys app games and outdoor challenges.
The price includes all activities, the self-guided walking format, GST, and one hour with the remote interactive survival guide. You do not pay separately for the challenges or the app-based scoring.
You do need to supply the smartphone, and you do not receive transportation. Those are not surprise costs, but they shape the value. If you are looking for a chauffeured activity, a historical tour, or a guide who explains the city in person, this is not the right product.
The strongest value comes from treating the ticket as a team pass. The booking covers up to 10 players, so a family or friend group should book once rather than purchasing individual tickets. One useful clarification is that the ticket is for the entire team, and one phone can serve the group if everyone remains together.
This is also a good choice when you want a short activity between other plans. The one-hour format is easy to fit into a day, though the exact amount of walking can vary because your group chooses the route.
What You Will See, and What You Will Not

You will search around Myrtle Beach for items connected to the zombie survival theme. You may find yourself looking at ordinary parts of the city in a different way, since the app turns the surroundings into clues and possible supply spots.
You should not book this expecting named attractions, museum entries, beach commentary, or a list of historic stops. No specific landmarks are promised. The hunt is about finding items and completing challenges, not receiving a formal lesson about the destination.
That can be a benefit if you already know Myrtle Beach or have visited its major attractions before. The activity gives you a fresh reason to walk and pay attention. It can also work for a group that wants an activity with less structure than a standard tour.
The drawback is that the experience may feel less satisfying if you want guaranteed views or a clear series of highlights. The app determines the game, and your score depends on how your team handles the search.
Since the activity starts and ends at the same address, you have a clear home base. Still, the information does not specify the precise distance covered or the locations of individual items. Plan for walking, but do not assume a particular route length.
Who Will Enjoy This Most

I would recommend this for families, couples, and friend groups who like playful competition. It is particularly well suited to people who enjoy scavenger hunts, app games, and making decisions as a team.
The private format is a plus for groups that do not want to share an outing with strangers. A party of up to 10 can play together under one booking, and the flexible route lets you set your own pace.
The activity can also suit a mixed-age group because the rules are delivered through the app rather than through a long spoken explanation. Still, the supplied information does not provide an age range or say how accessible individual challenges are. You should use your own judgment for children and for anyone who may find city walking difficult.
I would choose another type of tour if your main goal is Myrtle Beach history, local stories, food, or scenic interpretation. This is entertainment first. The city is the playing field, not the subject of a detailed guided presentation.
Timing, Meeting Point, and Practical Details

The activity is listed for Tuesday through Sunday from 9:00 AM to 5:00 PM, during the stated operating period of May 17, 2020 through December 10, 2026. Because operating information can be date-specific, check your selected time when booking.
You meet at 1110 N Ocean Blvd, Myrtle Beach, South Carolina 29577, and return there when the game ends. Public transportation is nearby, according to the supplied details, but private transportation is not included.
The ticket is mobile, and the activity is offered in English. Bring a charged smartphone and make sure the person handling the app can use it comfortably. Since the phone manages instructions, answers, and scores, a dead battery would be a needless problem.
Service animals are allowed, and most people can participate. The activity is described as a self-guided walking experience, but no detailed accessibility information is given for the route or each challenge. If your group has specific mobility needs, ask before booking.
Free cancellation is available when you cancel at least 24 hours before the start time. Cancellations made within 24 hours are not refunded, and changes inside that window are not accepted. The cut-off uses Myrtle Beach local time.
My Take: Book It for the Game, Not the Sightseeing
Book Zombie Scavengers if you want a private, app-based group activity that turns an hour in Myrtle Beach into a competition. The team pricing is the main value, especially when 6 to 10 people share one booking.
Go in with the right expectations. You will not receive a live walking guide, a fixed list of attractions, or private transportation. You will use your own phone, choose your own route, search for survival items, and complete zombie-themed challenges with remote help available by chat.
For families and friends who enjoy a little friendly rivalry, this is an easy-to-fit-in activity with a clear start and finish. If your priority is learning about Myrtle Beach, choose a traditional sightseeing experience instead.
