"Die Hard" Definitively Pronounced a Christmas Movie - Garbage Pail Kids® Mobile Game has the Proof

LOS ANGELES (PRWEB) December 15, 2021

At long last, families worldwide can look forward to a holiday season free from that most rancorous topic of debate: is "Die Hard" a Christmas movie? According to the team at Garbage Pail Kids: The Game (now available for download in the Apple App Store and the Google Play Store) the answer once and for all is yes.

Jago Studios, creator of interactive social entertainment, in partnership with Topps is proud to announce the findings of their exhaustive study on the matter. In preparation for release of their "Crappy Holidays" game update, a team of crack(ed) researchers delved deep into the Garbage Pail Kids archives and unearthed the Bruised Bruce card [see attached artwork], a GPK tribute to the classic Bruce Willis actioner that they say settles the matter conclusively.

"It's all there," said Jago Studios' CEO Stuart Drexler, in reference to the card. "The lights, the tree, the machine gun. If that stuff doesn't say 'Christmas' then I don't know what does."

Ira Friedman, Vice President of Global Licensing at Topps, concurred. "With this controversy behind us at last, families can gather for their holiday celebrations without fear of strife. Now that 'Die Hard' has unequivocally been declared a Christmas movie, what's left to argue about?"

Garbage Pail Kids: The Game is a card collecting and strategy role playing game for mobile devices, developed by Jago Studios under license from The Topps Company, Inc., the originator of the Garbage Pail Kids property. Since the launch of the game in 2019, avid players who grew up loving the iconic (and iconoclastic) trading card series have fallen just as deeply in love with the game but even they couldn't have foreseen its current role as global peacemaker and ultimate argument-settler.

Garbage Pail Kids: The Game is free-to-play and available for download at get.gpkthegame.com. For more information and to receive updates on the game, visit gpkthegame.com or follow @gpkgame on Twitter, Instagram and Facebook.
