DIE HARD

It's not bad, in a "flash game circa 2003" sort of way. [May 2013, p.82]

A premium endless runner based on a movie license that is designed like a freemium endless runner based on a movie license. The shooting adds some enjoyment while running, but not for very long.

Die Hard would be a funny endless runner, if only wasn't filled with so many overwhelming and intrusive in-app purchases.

It's like it's fifth movie. It gives you nothing relevant, looks alright and it's not very interesting if you're not a fan of the series. It's a nice attempt, but it's still far from such a special series as Die Hard.

This casually made adventure isn't bad in any way. On the other hand, it's not good in any way either. Die Hard is the pure definition of mediocrity.

In fairness to Die Hard, the game does - awkward character modeling and animation aside - at least function and do what it sets out to do. It's not the best runner though, and it's certainly not the best shooter, and the combination of the two in this instance is rather slow and dull. But it works for however much time you're prepared to give to it.

It might be ugly, stupid, and often unintentionally hilarious, but Die Hard is fun enough that for whatever brief period of your life you waste on it you won't mind.

While the “endless shooter” mechanics are nicely executed, Die Hard's increasingly boring gameplay and irritating checkpoints aren't worth the effort. "Yippee ki-lame," sadly.
