- More Fun than SHOOTING!!
When i first bought this game, i was amazed at how much fun this actually is. If the pen is mightier than the sword than the keyboard is mightier than the gun (lol that should have been the tagline of the game) There is some much tension because sometimes you forget where letters are and you start mashing the keyboard in excitement as tons of zombies come running at you its really a rush, because with a gun, weve all done it before, theres really no thought in shooting a zombie but have to think ...

- Who knew zombies were educational?
This is a great game especially for those of us who are video game challenged.I've never been great at video games, but I can type with the best.So when a friend introduced me to (read in your scary zombie voice) The Typing of the Dead I was blown away.Sure its not the most challenging game in the world and it could use a few more levels, but its great fun.As far as actually teaching you to type, well... that's debatable.See you don't have to hit the space bar or capitalize anything.But ...

My nephew was very disappointed, luckily I was able to download the demo version and after a few hours of it, the game left the Most Wanted list and became just another game on the rack. Luckily the CD wasn't ... Read More

It is a shame the Dreamcast had to die so early in it's life because it was a home to truly original games like this one that were a real treat to play.This game is just Sega's The House of the Dead 2, (also released for Dreamcast) but instead of using a lightgun peripheral you use a keyboard to type words and phrases that appear on screen as zombies and the undead try to attack you.It is actually a lot of fun, and it's only real flaw is that your wrists will be in graet pain after playing this game for ...
