Summary

Your rapid-fire typing skills spell doom for the undead in this utterly odd, totally challenging take-off on House of the Dead 2. When you're battling zombies in a nightmare-come-true, ten trigger fingers are definitely better than two!

    One of the coolest Dreamcast games to date. Excellent challenges, nice visuals, and a surplus of bonus modes are contained within Typing but most of all, Smilebit has given Dreamcast maniacs something truly unique in making typing fun.

    Move over, Mavis Beacon. This Dreamcast typing tutorial blows your tiresome tutorial to smithereens.

    Extremely fun. And like Bill Cosby used to say, "You just might learn something by the time we're done."

    A guaranteed sleeper hit. While its edutainment background seems at odds with the subject material, these two worlds collide rather splendidly.

    Pushes Seaman out of the top spot for "weirdest game to come out in the US".
