Die Hard is a top-down run-and-gun action game developed by Pack-In-Video and published by Activision for the NES, based on the 1988 film. Players control John McClane through the floors of Nakatomi Plaza, shooting Hans Gruber’s terrorists, rescuing hostages, and managing both a health bar and a “feet” meter — since the barefoot hero takes damage crossing broken glass.
