Hint: kill the big words first, they shoot random letters at regular intervals.

Ooooh, that's good. The sound and music are very satisfying. I got to wave 22.

I got a final score of 3354 on wave 30-something (why doesn't the score screen tell you your final wave? Oh well). Not even remotely interested in playing on the harder difficulty...

/me shudders

I was terrible at the Typing of the Dead and I'm terrible at this :(

Thanks for this! I've been thinking of getting The Typing of the Dead for the longest time so that I can improve my typing skills, but this probably works equally well.

Yeah, I made it through the first 15 waves on Normal and got bored.  Nothing was making it even a quarter of the way down the screen. :p

Well, I'm hooked. Best I got so far was a score of 7185 on expert mode. Died during wave 19... one mistake's all it takes to fail at that point

On one hand I only made it to 15 or so on hard...


...on the other hand, I'm on the verge of passing out I'm so sleepy and I don't even know why.
