Memories of Typing of the Dead: Overkill (2013) Typing of the Dead: Overkill took that same idea and dialed it to 11. It felt like a grindhouse film had crashed into a typing class—with Agent G spouting serious lines while Isaac dropped ridiculous one-liners. The adult humor, the insane bosses (remember “Mother”?), and the vulgar phrases you had to type made it feel bold, edgy, and hilarious. I remember laughing out loud, especially when playing co-op, and watching people freeze trying to type something wildly inappropriate before a mutant took them down.
