----------------------
Before turning on the Dreamcast...

For a ONE-PLAYER game:
    *Connect the keyboard to port A
    *Put the controller with VMU in port B

    *Connect 2 keyboards, one in port A and the other in port B
    *Put the controller with VMU in port C

Keyboard Arrows: Menu Selection
Enter: Join or continue a game/Start a game/Enter a menu selection
Esc: Delete "Targeting"/Return to Previous Screen
Pause: Pause the game/Continue
F1-F4: Use items (Original Mode ONLY)
F12+Alt: Return to Menu Screen (Drill Mode/Tutorial Mode ONLY)
Ctrl+Alt+Delete: Return to Title Screen

---------
TARGETING
---------
Once you begin typing a phrase, you will then be targeted on that
phrase.  While targeted on a phrase, you CAN NOT begin or type
in any other phrase but that one.  You must either complete the
phrase/word or hit Esc to begin the next phrase/word.

In a 2 player game, 1st Player is red while 2nd player is blue.

**HINT** Always target onto the first zombie that is attacking you
or you'll end up losing life in the later levels.

-------------------
LETTERS AND SYMBOLS
-------------------
Press and hold the Shift key in order to type the symbols that are
displayed on the keyboard above the number keys and other symbol
keys.  Release the Shift key to type numbers and the lower symbols
again.

    *EXAMPLE* To type "!", press the Shift key and the "1" key
              simultaneously.

Quick reference table for letters and symbols
---------------------------------------------
 1  |  !        -  |  _
 2  |  @        =  |  +
 3  |  #        [  |  {
 4  |  $        ]  |  }
 5  |  %        ;  |  :
 6  |  ^        '  |  "
 7  |  &        ,  |  <
 8  |  *        .  |  >
 9  |  (        /  |  ?
 0  |  )


**HINT** The Typing of the Dead dows not distinguish between upper
and lower case letters.  You only need to press the Shift key to
type symbols.  You also do not need to type spaces.  The space bar
is basically not used in this game.  This means that you plain out
waste precious typing time by doing these things.

----------------------
4. GAMEPLAY
----------------------

DISPLAY
-----
The display of TotD is very basic and easy to interpret.

    *Word Boxes
         - Word Boxes are located right on a zombie.  Simply type
           the word correctly, and the monster will die.  In 2 player
           games, the box will have 3 lines of text instead of 2, one
           for each player.  The first one to type gets the points
           in a competitive nature.  Also, targeting will be shown
           in the text box so you know which zombie you are currently
           fighting.
    *Rank Display
         - Once a zombie is defeated, a rank will be displayed.
           Your rank will be decided by how fast you managed to type
           the word or phrase to destroy the zombie.  Ranks range
           from A to E, of course with A being the best and E being
           downright horrible.
    *Winner Display (2 PLAYER ONLY)
         - The winner display will show which player defeated the
           zombie.  1P=Red and 2P=Blue
    *Bonus Gauge
         - Each time you defeat a zombie, your bonus gauge increases
           depending on the current number in your perfect meter.
           Once the meter fills, a free life will be yours.
    *Perfect Meter
         - In order to do well with the perfect meter, you'll need to
           master the art of accuracy.  The more accurate you type,
           the longer the meter will stay up.  Spell a word right
           without any errors, and you earn 1 perfect meter point.
           This will allow the bonus gauge a faster increase ratio.
    *Lives/Continues
         - The most obvious part of the display is the lives.  The
           small red or blue flame type items on the bottom are your
           lives.  The game ends when the lives run out when you will
           then be gave 9 seconds to a slow painful death or you can
           choose to continue.  I wonder which one you'll pick...
           Also, you are limited to anywhere from 3-9 continues
           depending on what you picked in the Options menu.

MODES
-----
If there is one thing Typing of the Dead has, it's plenty of modes to
keep your fingers busy.  Here is a short description of each...

    *Arcade Mode
         - This mode is exactly the same as the arcade version of The
           Typing oft he Dead.
    *Original Mode
         - The basic feel of arcade mode, but with the addition of
           various items and a coin collecting system.
    *Tutorial Mode
         - Typing lessons galore.  Learn to be the best typer you can
           in these in-depth typing tutorials.
    *Drill Mode
         - Select a category that you are bad at and practice it
           repetitively in this mode.
    *Boss Mode
         - Select one of the bosses, and try to defeat it as fast as
           possible in this competitive mode.
    *Rankings
         - View the rankings from every mode.
    *Options
         - Modify the game settings and perform sound tests.
    *Password Entry
         - A NFL2K style password entry screen.  I barely know any
           passwords, so hopefully many more are to be found.


CHARACTERS
----------
**NOTE** Character and Zombie descriptions are taken directly from
        www.thetypingofthedead.com

-JAMES TAYLOR (1P)
    A special agent of the government agency "AMS". 35 years old. American.
    His conduct is cool and logical. He never relies on intuition and
    guesswork. He handles whatever he faces with the utmost calmness and
    clarity. Devoid of excessive emotion, Taylor has an almost computer-like
    mind. Accordingly he is often dispatched to scenes of immense
    difficulty and utter confusion.

-GARY STEWART (2P)
    A special agent of the government agency "AMS". 24 years old. American.
    A warm hearted youth, yet to discover the world's sheer disorder.
    Whatever he comes up against, his approach is passionate and
    emotional. He was assigned tO "AMS" a year ago. Despite his lack of
    experience, Gary puts all of his effort into his work. But sometimes
    he is recklessin his actions, and this worries James.

-AMY CRYSTAL
    A special agent of the government agency "AMS". 29 years old. American.
    A reliable character, who has faced danger on many occasions, Amy
    is an open, frank, kind woman who never discriminates. She often
    behaves like a big sister to Gary and has not yet accepted him fully
    as a special agent.

-HARRY HARRIS
    A special agent of the government agency "AMS". Harry is either in
    his late thirties or early forties. No one knows his nationality.
    He does not speak about his past. He always seems gloomy. He
    habitually wears dark glasses, and never shows his expressions.

-GOLDMAN
    Goldman is in his early forties, and heads a world-famous,
    distinguished financial group. Using his own substantial financial
    power, he is actively involved in human genome research. Goldman
    will soon report the results of his latest research, but none of
    his projects has ever been officially approved. He has an incredibly
    cool and intellegent appearance, but inside he is extremely anxious
    about the future of the natural world and the very existence of
    the human race.


ZOMBIES
-------

-DAVID
    David is one big zombie. He is highly adaptable, thriving in all
    environments. His special attack is with his teeth. Beware of
    David's putrid breath.

-BOB
    Despite being big and fat, BOB can move fast. Bob's principal form
    of attack is a drop kick. He also throws barrels and oil drums.

-EBITAN
    Ebitan is a revolting and perpetually rotting zombie. Accordingly,
    his resilience is lower than other monsters. Ebitan resides in the
    water, suddenly leaping from the murky depths to attack his prey.
    His main method of attack is to bite his prey.

-GREGORY
    Gregory is a bit of a show off and there is nothing he likes to do
    more before finishing off his victims than to flourish his giant
    sword. You will find is hard to aim your gun at Gregory, because
    he uses his sword to defend as skillfully as he does to maim.

-JOHNNY
    Johnny is a tough zombie to deal with, as he loves to rush at his
    prey hiding his vulnerable face behind two axes. When he's not
    descending on you with terrifying speed, he will throw his axes
    with lethal accuracy from a safe distance. Be warned!

-KAGEO
    Kageo is a mummified zombie, who prowls the darkest, most dreadful
    areas. He may look weak, but watch out for his fierce punch.

-MAX
    You'll know Max when you see him. He's the zombie crazily swinging
    two chainsaws about. He's also the biggest of all zombies.

-KEN
    Ken was modelled on Kageo. He wears an iron mask and is armed with
    vicious clawed gloves. His face is his most vulnerable part, but
    as it is covered, it makes Ken an extremely troublesome zombie to
    stop. Like kageo, ken also lurks in dark corners. Ken attacks with
    his lethal claws.

-MICKEY
    Mickey is a small zombie who wields knives in both hands. His method
    of attack is to leap down at his target from roof tops and other
    high places. Even if Mickey throws both knives at you, there's no
    time to relax. He can produce an unlimited supply of knives from
    his hips.

-RANDY
    Randy is a small mask-wearing zombie. Don't be fooled by his lack
    of stature because Randy is a vicious little monster who can run
    along walls and ceilings as easily as on floors. Randy often roams
    with a friend. His preferred method of attack is a leaping death
    scratch.

-PETER
    Poor Peter is infested with giant parasitic worms and is relatively
    weak. He puts his worms to horrifyingly effective use though, for
    when his chest is wounded, the parasites will leave Peter's ribcage
    and leap at his attacker. Peter can also pack a mean punch.

-MURRER
    Murrer is a snake-like zombie who often infests areas in hoards.
    Murrer attacks by flying at his victims and gouging at their faces
    with his myriad of teeth.

----------------------
5. ARCADE MODE
----------------------

OVERVIEW
--------
You begin by selecting Training or Story Mode

    *Training Mode
         - This is a training mode where you should aim to clear the
           stage within the 210-second time limit.  You will lose 5
           seconds every time a zombie hits you.  Don't worry about
           losing lives in Training Mode.  You will be given
           explanations on how to play during Training Mode.  The
           game will end if you clear the stage, or if you run out of
           time.  This stage is very basic and extremely easy.  You
           shouldn't have any difficulties making it through this
           level.

Once you select Story Mode, the game will truly begin!

STORY MODE
----------

In story mode, first you will select a chapter.

    *CHAPTER 1: Prelude (For absolute beginners)
    *CHAPTER 2: Muddy (For novices)
    *CHAPTER 3: Darkness (For intermediates)
    *CHAPTER 4: Despair (For intermediates)
    *CHAPTER 5: Dawn (For typing masters)
    *CHAPTER 6: Original Sin (For typing prodigies)

**NOTE** Chapter 6 will only be avaliable after finishing Chapter 5.
After earning a certain amount of coins in Original Mode, Chapter
6 will be selectable from the beginning.

Chapter 1: Prelude
------------------
   This level is very basic with easy phrases and plenty of powerup
   items.  To receive the highest score possible, make sure to get
   all the items and rescue all hostages.  This level is great for
   working up the Perfect Meter and helping your accuracy out.

                                           |_______________|

  PATH A
  ------
  The level begins with a cutscene of you driving a car into
  town.
        1 - 3 Zombies (Davids) are waiting for you. Quickly dispose
            of them by typing the 2 letter words.  Next, you will enter
            the building to your right...

        2 - 2 Zombies will attack.  Quickly dispose of these 2 also
            by typing the 2 lettered words. You'll continue to walk
            forward.  James will look at the body on the floor to his
            right.

        3 - The zombie will kick the chair to the side and come at you.
            He should be an easy word.  Dispose of him and James will
            walk forward and look over the table to his left.

        4 - A zombie will crawl up. Quickly kill him for an easy A rank
            and another zombie will pop up to your right as you are
            killing the first.  He should be another easily disposed.
            Continue walking forward and James will spot "G".  G hands
            James the G's File book which will help you point out the
            weak spots of bosses in the game.  Take the book and some
            zombies will break through the glass door ahead.

        5 - Dispose of the closest one (which should be a Johnny, or
            a zombie carrying axes)  These 2 should be extremely easy
            once again.  Once you've took care of them, you'll exit the
            building to find a hostage being attacked.  Don't fret when
            he dies.  You cant save this one.

        6 - Shoot the zombie (which should be a fairly short word) and
            continue down the path.

Powerup 1 - Located between the 6th and 7th "attack", this is a fairly
            tough powerup to get.  Be ready to shoot at it with a quick
            one-button configuration.

        7 - It's time for your first path split.  The first hostage is
            very easy.  Just take your time and try not to panic :P
            Destroy the zombie chasing the girl and you'll be on your
            way.  If you don't save the girl, you'll lose valuable
            points toward the level.
            IF YOU RESCUED THE HOSTAGE:  CONTINUE DOWN PATH A
            IF THE HOSTAGE DIED:         GO TO PATH C

        8 - Two hostages in a row to rescue! Save the hostage from the
            2 zombies.  Go for the close zombie first thats about to
            kick the hostage in the head.  Then go for the distant
            zombie after that.  This one is tougher than the last, but
            still easy none-the-less.
            IF YOU RESCUED THE HOSTAGE: GO TO PATH B
            IF THE HOSTAGE DIED:        GO TO PATH C

  PATH B
  ------

Powerup 2 - The second powerup of the level will appear here. Shoot the
            barrel to reveal this powerup as you make your ways toward
            the 9th "attack".

        9 - Could it be??  Ah yes..  3 hostages in a row!  This one is
            the toughest yet.  You'll have to save the crawling man
            from a swift kick in the rear.  Please, be kind and don't
            let this guy get kicked there.  The zombie will be an easy
            word..  so do it for all of mankind!  After saving this
            guy, you'll continue on to PATH D.  If you let him die a
            very painful death... continue on to PATH D anyways.

  PATH C
  ------

  **COMING SOON**

  PATH D
  ------
        10- A swarm of small one button "worm type" creatures (whose
            true names are "Murrers") will attack you.  Be quick with
            your reflexes, and this should be easy enough.  Continue
            on the path through the town.

        11- An axe throwing Johnny is next to attack.  Shoot him through
            the window above with the simple word and you'll be on your
            way.  Be sure to watch out for his axes and use the ESC key
            if necessary.  You'll turn to the left for the next attack.

        12- 2 Zombies from the balcony across want a piece of you it
            appears.  Beware of the axes they throw and destroy them
            quickly.  You'll turn back on the path and be on your way.

Powerup 3 - Between the 12th and 13th "attack" lies the easiest powerup
            to get in this level.  Be prepared and shoot the barrel to
            get the Genre Dictionary.  This will allow you words of one
            category.  It's not very helpful.. but fun anyways.

            Make your way down the path and a young chinese looking boy
            will run out the door.  It's time for your first mission!

Mission 1 - Kill ten zombies in 30 seconds
            This mission is very easy.  If you picked up the powerup
            directly before it (the same genre dictionary), this mission
            will be even easier as you will usually type words containing
            a certain letter or pattern.  This isn't always true though,
            so be prepard.  Most of these are single words. You'll be
            rewarded by how fast you type and the ranks you receive.
            If you fail, it won't hurt you..  but you won't get an item.

        13- 2 Zombies will be standing on the path.  Quickly dispose of
            them and a zombie will jump down from the bridge high up
            above.  Shoot him mid-air and continue down the path.

Powerup 4 - Between 13 and 14 is another powerup.  This one should also
            be fairly easy to get.  I suggest using it on one of the next
            zombies (it should be sulphuric acid) since they are the
            final two in this level.  Continue down the path to rescue
            the final hostage of the level.

        14- A zombie is torturing a young woman hanging off the ledge
            of a bridge.  Hurry up and shoot the zombie before he beans
            the lady with the barrel.  The woman will then fall into
            the trash below and jump out.  She'll point towards the door
            which is a zombie cue (or it appears so) as a zombie charges
            through the door to the right.  Destroy this one quickly
            again to receive a free life from the woman.  Continue down
            the path to the two parked cars and Judgment will attack!

     Boss - Judgment
            Judgment is the easiest boss you will face in the game.  It
            has 2 forms.  First you will need to destroy Kuarl.  Kuarl
            isn't too difficult and you will only need to type short,
            easy phrases and even some words.  Once Kuarl is gone, you
            will fight the red guy (I can't remember his name).  He's
            not too difficult as you will receive a 3 second countdown
            and he will then fly at you.  Simply type the word before he
            gets to you to shoot him and dodge the attack.

Chapter 2: Muddy
----------------
    This level takes place in either the house or walking outside the
    ancient looking house.  It all depends if you can rescue the guy
    in the car at the opening of the level.  He is difficult to rescue
    in my opinion, but with some practice he should be easy enough to
    save.

    Powerups - **COMING SOON**

    Missions - **COMING SOON**

    Boss 1 - Heirophant A
         Heirophant is a pretty easy boss.  Attack him when his chest
         is open to do some damage.  If his chest is closed, you will
         not be able to attack.  After a few hits, he will then jump
         up into the air and require you to do a bit tougher words.
         This is mostly due to the fact that you have less time.

    Boss 2 - Heirophant B
         Depending on which path you took, you may end up at
         Heirophant B instead.  This boss is almost exactly same as
         the A version.  I don't think there is too much of a
         difference between the 2, but B may be just a tad tougher.

Chapter 3: Darkness
-------------------
    The majority of this level takes place on a speed boat.  You don't
    get the ability to drive yet (awww...) but anyways Harry seems
    like a good driver for the most part.  Amy tags along for the ride
    as you speed through the water in this fast paced word fest.

    Powerups - **COMING SOON**

    Missions - **COMING SOON**

    Boss 1 - Hydra A
          A first to the House of the Dead series is the chance to
          test your trivia knowledge!  A question will pop up and you
          have to type the correct answer out of the 3 choices.  Some
          of these are no brainers while others actually require you
          to do some thinking.  After answering 6 or some correct,
          form 2 of Hydra will come into play.  Now the main head of
          the hydra is loose and you much attack it as it slides like
          a snake through the desert.  Type the short word quickly or
          your as good as dead.  After 5 shots or so, the boss will be
          dead and James has one once again!

    Boss 2 - Hydra B
          If you didn't fight Hydra A, then Hydra B is the boss you'll
          be up against.  The strategy is the same as the A form,
          except the final hydra fight will take place in the water
          instead of the desert.

Chapter 4: Despair
------------------
    Did you ever want to fight some zombies in an ancient ruins? I
    didn't think so, but guess what... you get to anyways!!  Despair
    is really not too bad of a chapter.  The enemies have longer words
    and phrases for the most part, but with practice the level should
    come naturally.  The level has many splits in the path, and I'll
    get more in-depth in those in the next update hopefully.

    Powerups - **COMING SOON**

    Missions - **COMING SOON**

    Boss - Strength A
         Strength, Strength, Strength...  Strength is without a doubt
         my favorite boss in the game.  Instead of typing words or
         phrases you type entire paragraphs.  It may sound boring, but
         the paragraphs are hilarious for the most part.  Anyways, the
         best advice I can give to you is take it easy and remember
         punctuation.  There will be a lot, so get use to it!

    Boss - Strength B
         Exactly the same as Strength A, except the Maze is a tad
         different but you most likely wont notice it at all.

Chapter 5: Dawn
---------------
    Lets run the boss gauntlet!  For the most part, that's exactly what
    this level is. This level runs on a track, so there are no path
    changes in the level.  You begin the level walking through the
    beginning of the town.  Next, you hop into Harry's car and start
    down the road.  First you'll run into Judgment.  Just follow the
    same strategy as you used the first time.  The phrases will be a
    little tougher this time around... but just stay calm.  Continue
    down the road.  A few kick shots will need to be done on the car
    next to you and an enemy should jump on the hood.  Take them out
    quickly and onto Heirophant.  Once again, follow the same strategy
    as last time and continue on your way.  Destroy the enemies in the
    van area and continue.  One more enemy will get on your hood and
    after taking that one out, you'll hop out of your car.  Make your
    way towards Goldman's Headquarters and you'll need to take out 3
    enemies.  Watch out for Pete's parasite as it jumps out and onto
    the boss.

    Powerups - **COMING SOON**

    Missions - Actually..this mission doesn't have any missions :(

    Boss - Magician
         Magician isn't a fun boss..  If there's one thing I can say,
         it's simply that you SHOULDN'T base your attack on speed.
         He's all about accuracy..make a typo and you take damage.
         Take your time with the first hits and after a minute or so
         he'll go up into the air for the next attack.  Now you can
         go back to the speed thing and not worry as much about
         accuracy.  Type in the words or phrase as fast as you can
         before the orbs hit you and after the second minute, this
         boss will be as good as dead.

Chapter 6: Original Sin (Final Chapter)
-----------------------
    Yes, this stage also runs on a track.

    **NOTE** A more detailed walkthrough will be added later

    Going through Goldman's Headquarters is no easy feat.  Go through
    the level and eventually you'll reach Mission 1.  Finish this and
    it's onto Hydra.  Dispose of Hydra the same way you did before
    and then onto Mission 2  Finish this up and you'll then get to the
    Emperor..  one tough boss.

    Powerups - **COMING SOON**

    Mission 1 - Destroy 8 zombies without taking damage
         This one isn't easy..but it isn't impossible.  Destroy the
         zombies by typing the -sentences- (argh)...  Good luck!

    Mission 2 - Repel the zombies for 30 seconds
         Repeling the zombies isn't easy, but it's simple enough.
         Of course, type the words as fast as you can and try not to
         allow too many zombies on the screen at one time.

    Boss - Emperor
         Duh Duh Duh..  Time for the Emperor...  It's all about fast
         typing and there isnt any set way of attack the Emperor does.
         Just type them as they come I suppose until the Emperor turns
         into the orb form.  In this form, you'll get a question and
         3 sentence answers.  No matter which answer you type, it'll
         do damage.  Just pick one that's easy to type and you'll have
         the Emperor beat in no time!

13. FAQ
----------------------

Q: Do I need a keyboard to play this game?
A: Yes! Two would be nice if you can get your hands on them, but at
  least one is required to play

Q: Can I use my lightgun for this game?
A: Well.. considering the name of the game is The TYPING of the Dead
  I would recommened only using it with your keyboard :)  But the
  answer to the question is NO.

Q: If I own House of the Dead 2, is this game a waste of money?
A: The feel of the game, drills, tutorials, and much more really make
  the game different.  I suggest buying both.  Anyways, it's fun
  pointing out the small changes we notice.

Q: Typing of the Dead sounds horrible! Is it really worth my time?
A: It's one of those addictive games.  I would recommend getting it
  if you have SOME TYPE of experience typing.  If your a super slow
  type, you aren't going to last long.  You actually do become a much
  better and faster typer from this game.  Also, there are tutorials
  on how to type using the home row. (which I think is hard :P)

Q: Will the tutorials actually help me type?
A: Yes.  They are a big help if your starting to type!  I strongly
  suggest going through them.  ESPECIALLY the special key ones :)

Q: Can you have two players on one keyboard?
A: Nope, sorry.  It sounds tough on the same keyboard anyways.  Shelling
  out the 20 bucks for a second keyboard is worth the cash anyways.

Q: How much is this game?
A: At current time, you can probably find it for $29.99 easily.  Use the
  extra money to get yourself an extra keyboard.

Q: How much is the Dreamcast keyboard? <submitted: [email protected]>
A: I'd say the keyboard ranges from $19.99 to $24.99

Q: You talk about things in your FAQ that aren't in my game!!  Are you
  insanely CRAZY?!?!
A: I don't think so...  Check the secrets/unlockable section to find
  out how to unlock tutorials, drills, and bosses.  Also, if you need
  the stuff IMMEDIATELY, check the password section and cheat your way
  there.

Q: What's the ESRB on this game?
A: Even though it's a game about typing.. It's about Mature.  So if your
  under 17 either find an adult who will buy it for ya or you'll have
  to wait.

Q: Is this game like House of the Dead or House of the Dead 2?
A: This game is an EXACT replica of House of the Dead 2 with a few minor
  adjustments that are barely noticable.  There's even some extra zombies
  thrown around in it! :)

Q: I like this FAQ.. where can I find more to quench my thirst?!
A: This is only my second FAQ, but I have also wrote numerous game reviews.
  Go to http://www.gamefaqs.com/features/recognition/4532.html and check
  out all the stuff I have/am writing.  At the time I wrote this, my only
  other GameFAQs FAQ is for Chameleon Twist.  It's a great FAQ if you own
  the game (which I hope you didnt waste your money on).

Any INTELLIGENT questions will be answered and possibly put in this FAQ

I don't have to go shopping anymore.
I've been eating all kinds of poultry.
I just keep my sliding doors clean.
And put the birdfeeder on the inside.

The other day, I saw this anteater.
He was really really overweight.
And then I started to wonder what
It would eat if it was on a diet.

I have a brand-new red sports car.
I keep it bright and shiny all the time.
I think I'll just stand here next to it.
And wait for someone to notice me.

What do you call a zombie taking a bath?
You call him Stew, of course.
How do you know if a zombie used
Your shower? The soap got bigger.

I was disgusted yesterday at breakfast.
I was on my last piece of raisin toast,
When I made a startling discovery,
I wan't eating raisin bread.

No, thank you, I don't eat meat.
Fish? No, I really can't eat fish.
I don't like vegetables, either.
Anyway, don't you have any chocolate?
