Die Hard Trilogy lets players guide New York cop John McClane through three arcade-style games based on each of the three Die Hard movies. Each movie is represented through a totally different style, making this a "3 games in 1" style package.
Die Hard is a third person action/adventure game through thirty floors of the Nakatomi Tower high-rise. Terrorists have interrupted the company's Christmas party and taken hostages. As McClane, the player must search for hostages through computer, construction, maintenance, and executive levels. McClane's default pistol holds infinite ammo, and the player can collect limited-ammo machine guns and grenades inside the levels. Walls turn transparent when they intersect the camera, allowing players to follow McClane through hallways and rooms with ease. After all the hostages on a level have been rescued, the player has 30 seconds to locate a bomb sent down by elevator, then use that elevator to move to the next level.
Die Hard 2: Die Harder is a first-person arcade gun game, nearly identical to Virtua Cop. Terrorists have attacked Washington/Dulles Airport. The player automatically moves through the airport and surrounding areas "on rails," shooting bad guys that appear from behind the scenery. Weapon upgrade icons can be shot to be collected, and either use limited ammo, or are retained until the player is hit. Players can also destroy parts of the environment by shooting it, which can be used to take out nearby terrorists.
Die Hard With A Vengeance has players racing through New York City streets in a variety of vehicles, trying to locate bombs before they explode. A strict timer ticks off the next explosion, and the player is guided only by a direction arrow and the vocal suggestions of their co-driver. Bombs are hidden inside everyday objects and are defused by ramming them, which activates the timer on the next bomb. Occasional "bomb cars" must be chased and rammed until their life bar is depleted.
All three games feature exaggeratedly bloody action and use a combination of textured polygons and sprites to generate their worlds, resulting in warping textures and some quirky effects.

Game Guide
Extracted from the original game manual
This is an action-shooter game where you play as Detective John McClane, fighting terrorists across various locations. You'll engage in gunfights, defuse bombs, rescue hostages, and participate in vehicle chases to thwart their plans.
Story
INTRODUCTION
You are Detective John McClane, a cop with a bad habit of always being in the wrong place at the wrong time. It's up to you to wipe out terrorists, free hostages, and defuse bombs.
You'll need brains, skill, deadly weapons, and the guts to take on impossible odds.

NAKATOMI PLAZA: THE OBJECTIVE
You are in the parking garage of Nakatomi Plaza, a Los Angeles skyscraper wired to explode. Above you are 19 more floors, crawling with terrorists. They aim to steal millions in negotiable bonds and won't hesitate to kill hundreds of hostages.
Fight your way up, floor-by-floor, to the rooftop. Search hallways, office suites, the grand ballroom, and even floors under construction. Kill all terrorists and rescue as many hostages as possible.
Once you kill the last terrorist on each floor, a bomb is activated. It will appear on your map as a flashing dot. Get to it in time, and you'll automatically move to the next floor. Fail, and Nakatomi Plaza will be obliterated.
WASHINGTON/DULLES AIRPORT: THE OBJECTIVE
You arrive at Washington/Dulles Airport to pick up your wife, only to find it crawling with terrorists. They've come to rescue a South American dictator and drug kingpin being flown to the US for trial.
You see all the action through McClane's eyes as he races through the terminal, annihilating terrorists, but hopefully not civilians and hostages. The chase continues with rapid-fire speed until you bring down the terrorist escape plane.
CONTROLS
The program controls McClane's movement, scrolling from one area to the next, starting, stopping, or moving continuously as needed. You control McClane's weapons, aiming, firing, and throwing explosives.
Aim by moving the CROSS-HAIR on the screen with Directional buttons. The AUTO ZOOM will zoom in on the view in the Cross-Hair for more accurate aiming.
When the action extends past the edges of the screen, an ARROW on the outer edge of the Cross-Hair will point to terrorists lurking just out of sight. Moving the Cross-Hair to the edge of the screen will cause McClane to turn his head and bring this area into view.
SNOWMOBILE CHASE
If you make it out of the airport, you'll find yourself engaged in a high-speed Snowmobile chase. Slaughter the cold-blooded terrorists as you slalom through the blinding snow.
PLANE INTERCEPT
After the snowmobile chase, you're ready to board a chopper for your final mission: Plane intercept. Target the four jet engines in buffeting winds at 12,000 feet.
BONUS SCREEN
If McClane flies the unfriendly skies successfully, you'll see the results here. Bonus points are awarded for the number of Terrorists killed, Hostages saved, and remaining health.
DIE HARD WITH A VENGEANCE
NEW YORK CITY: THE OBJECTIVE
This time, a gang of terrorists led by the twisted genius, Simon, has stashed bombs throughout the city to cover a multi-billion dollar heist. Simon says John McClane is the only one who can defuse them.
It's a test of your nerves and driving skills. You and your reluctant partner, Zeus, will seek out and commandeer more than fifteen different vehicles.
Blaze through the traffic-choked streets of Chinatown in a high-powered sports car. Scatter some skaters in Central Park in a dump truck. Grab a cab and drive it right into the subway system.
You've got to get to the next bomb and run it over before it detonates. Then, outrun the terrorists before they escape.

Hide in the boardroom of the Executive Level, or root out the Hostages in the Vault. Wind your way through Nakatomi Plaza until you reach the Computer levels, treacherous with broken glass scattered everywhere, home to the strangest, most heavily armed bosses, surrounded by their henchmen.
If you've been good and rescued the Hostages, you'll earn a bonus trip to the rooftop. Here, whilst picking off snipers and escorting the hostages to the escape Chopper, you can gain numerous rewards if you can find them before the last Hostage escapes. Yippie-Ki-Yay!
Die Hard 1 Bonus Screen
You've killed the terrorists, faced the Bosses, saved some hostages and made it to the elevator before the Level Bomb exploded. Here's where you relax and get your reward. Until the elevator doors open on the next level, that is. Yippie-Ki-Yay!

Get off in Central Park and turn on Central Park Drive, where you'll quickly see if an 18-Wheeler makes a good off-road vehicle. Make it past the traffic lights of West Side Highway and it's welcome to Chinatown. The one-way streets are clogged with pedestrians and market stalls, but you can always use the sidewalks.
Challenge your driving skills in the Financial District as you race through Wall Street rush hour. When you hit The Aqueduct, an enclosed tunnel brings you face-to-face with
