Typing of the Dead

Empire Interactive Readies Keyboard for Typing of the Dead
Take one of the most entertaining light-gun games of all time; House of the Dead 2, swap the light-gun for a standard PC keyboard, and start typing!

In The Typing of the Dead gamers adventure through the story of House of the Dead 2, but instead of firing a light-gun to defeat evil creatures gamers type words and phrases displayed onscreen in a large box in front of each creature. As each letter is typed, it will disappear from the box leaving only the un-typed letters. Make a mistake and the next letter will remain until you hit the correct key. The faster and more accurate you type, the faster you’ll defeat the zombies and the higher you’re score will be. If you’re not fast enough, the zombie gets close enough to take a bite out of you, lowering your health one bite at a time. All the gameplay modes from House of the Dead 2 are retained; including its story based “Arcade Mode”. An “Original Mode” is available, where players obtain bonus items dependent on typing accuracy and performance. The Typing of the Dead offers a “Tutorial Mode” which demonstrates speed and accuracy tests to perfect individual typing skills. The game features a “Boss and Drill Mode”; whereas in the “Drill Mode” typists are tested through a series of typing-dexterity drills that range from typing through a set number of zombies, a “no mistakes mode”, and an accuracy mode. The “Boss Mode” forces the typist to challenge a powerful “Boss Character” while being chased through unique levels. The faster you type the faster you’ll outrun and eventually defeat the Boss. At the end of each level or if you’ve been defeated by a killer zombie, a typing rating will appear that details both strengths and weaknesses in full detail.
