IGN
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.
 88
Daily Radar
Move over, Mavis Beacon. This Dreamcast typing tutorial blows your tiresome tutorial to smithereens.
87
GameSpot
Extremely fun. And like Bill Cosby used to say, "You just might learn something by the time we're done."
85
GamerWeb Sega
Pushes Seaman out of the top spot for "weirdest game to come out in the US".
85
Happy Puppy
A guaranteed sleeper hit. While its edutainment background seems at odds with the subject material, these two worlds collide rather splendidly.
83
Core Magazine
An unnaturally fun typing tutor, and a pretty good zombie-blasting undead shooter to boot. Highly recommended, even if you already own the game TotD is based on, "House of the Dead 2."
80
DC Swirl
At its core this is nothing but a fruity remake...of "The House of the Dead 2". It's just that you no longer need to have great hand-eye coordination with a lightgun in order to succeed, but typing skills akin to the one's a secretary of management VP needs in order to succeed in the corporate world of mid-level data management.
80
Hot Games
A strangely cool and addictive game. But we have to take a point off for what is sure to be a limited appeal.
80
CNET Gamecenter
Ends up being a quirky gem in the Dreamcast catalog thanks to rock-solid gameplay, great graphics, and a loopy sense of humor. Best of all, players are guaranteed to see improvement in their typing if they log some time into the game.
80
Planet Dreamcast
If nothing else, Typing of the Dead is kooky, fun and inventive, and a worthwhile addition to any Dreamcast enthusiast’s library. Uh, provided you own one of those keyboards.
80
GamePro
Killer zombies, gushing green blood, scary monsters...give it a try and it'll give you the willies.
75
Game Revolution
Without a doubt, this is the most fun you can have while increasing your typing speed. Zombies make good teachers.
