| 10 | "Crossfire is a multi-player graphical arcade and adventure game made for |
|
|
| 11 | the X Window System environment. It has certain flavours from other |
|
|
| 12 | games, especially gauntlet and the rogue-like games. Any number of players |
|
|
| 13 | can move around in their own window, finding and using items and battling |
|
|
| 14 | monsters. They can choose to cooperate or compete in the same world." |
|
|
| 15 | |
|
|
| 16 | In the years of development that have followed, Crossfire has grown to |
|
|
| 17 | encompass hundreds of monsters, thousands of maps to explore, an elaborate |
|
|
| 18 | magic system, over 15 character types, a system of skills, and many, many |
|
|
| 19 | artifacts and treasures. |
