A retrospective review / video essay about The Typing of the Dead, a 1999 horror typing game by Sega & Smilebit that is a reworking of House of the Dead 2. Originally made for the Naomi arcade system, it's known for its Dreamcast port and for some of the worst (best) voice acting in games.

The idea of first person shooters as fast paced hidden object games is not my own. I think I originally heard it on the excellent Watch out for Fireballs podcast, but can't recall the episode.
