Crossfire is a multiplayer graphical arcade and adventure game made for the X environment with gtk installed.
It takes certain flavors from other games, especially Gauntlet and the rogue-like games (Nethack, Moria, Angband, and Ragnarok). Any number of players can move around in their own window, finding and using items and battling monsters. They can choose to cooperate or compete in the same world.
Crossfire has grown to encompass over 150 monsters, ~3000 maps to explore, an elaborate magic system, over 15 character types, a system of skills, and many, many artifacts and treasures.
To play the game you’ll need to have access to a local or remote server. There are 2 official clients, jxclient and gtk2 client.
Features include:
- 13 races from dragons to quetzalcoatl.
- 19 character classes to chooses from.
- 150 different monsters.
- 3,000 maps to explore.
- 65 different weapons.
