"This is a game that blends the exhilarating elements of shooting games and educational objectives together. To kill a zombie, instead of pulling a trigger, you type the words that appear on the screen."
The Typing of the Dead II is a zombie shooting game, where instead of using guns you use your keyboard to kill zombies by typing the words that appear. The Typing of the Dead II was released on Mar 04, 2008 by Sega as a sequel to The Typing of the Dead. Just as The Typing of the Dead was based off of The House of the Dead 2, The Typing of the Dead II is based off of The House of the Dead III.
The game is in Japanese but can be played without a Japanese keyboard with few problems. The words that appear are written in Japanese and also written using the Latin alphabet to be typed properly.
"The game modes include a tutorial mode where complete novices can train themselves, a story mode where the player selects his/her routes toward a different ending. The drill mode is where players type repeatedly until they reach perfection, a mission mode where the players clear a stage after they have reached a certain criteria. The words or sentences prompted by the game require a quick mind and not just reflexes, for example, the players are prompted in certain parts of the game to input a word backwards. "
