Zombie Survival Calculators

This Map Predicts Users' Chance of Surviving a Zombie Apocalypse

— November 12, 2015 — Pop Culture
This slightly terrifying zombie map calculates any U.K. resident's chance of surviving a viral apocalypse based on where they live.

Anyone can type in their location and the zombie map will tell them exactly how badly a zombie apocalypse would go for them. The apocalypse calculator takes a number of factors into account. One of the important survival aspects is proximity to necessary services like hospitals and police stations. The calculator also relies heavily on population density to make its predictions -- presumably, high population density would be a big problem, as it would lead to a greater concentration of zombies.

Zombie fever has not died down, with The Walking Dead making news each week, and many businesses are joining the pop cultural movement with themed menus, new apps and even immersive zombie experiences.

3. Pop Culture-themed Products and Services - The popularity of zombie-themed TV shows and products has created a trend for companies to offer related experiences, resulting in possible innovation opportunities for the entertainment industry to create new immersive experiences and themed products.
