One of Gimkit's most loved modes is back for a limited time: Humans vs Zombies!

In Humans vs Zombies Mode, students are randomly split into two teams, Humans and Zombies! You can reshuffle the teams as many times as you'd like.

Each team starts off with 700 out of 700 health! 1.5 health is automatically decreased every second. The team that survives the longest wins!

Here's a blog post with more details: https://blog.gimkit.com/blog/eencw8smwo2xwei5jqtvh1ltrnbox2

We've added Auto-Accept for classes with student accounts! 

Have this on, and you won't have to manually accept each student. As soon as a student visits your join link, they'll be added to the class!

✊Battle it out...

Boss Battle Mode is available now for a limited time!

Take on an entire team as The Boss, or compete as one of the challengers to defeat The Boss!

Whichever side you're on, prepare for battle!
