Editorial Review

Ready ... aim ... Crossfire! This shootout game gets the adrenaline pumping as two players fire small metal pellets across the board, blasting their opponents' pucks ever closer to their goal. Plastic shooters attach to each end of the Crossfire board. Players load 'em up with pellets from a tray. The pucks spin and move easily on bearings as pellets hit them from each player. The trick is to load quickly and shoot accurately to hit and push your puck into your opponent's goal as often as you can. With a setup time of only minutes, Crossfire is instant fun and there's no need for batteries or electricity, so it can travel and be played anywhere. Game level can be adjusted quickly by changing goal guards. The playing surface is less than 2 feet long, making it a great tabletop game. --Lee Strucker

I grew up playing Crossfire, and now I've had it over 10 years, and it's still in perfect condition and its still fun to play. Me and my older brother still play it every now and then. It's not only fun for kids to play, its fun for adults too, but I would recommend it more for kids. It'll be one of their favorite things to do, if not their favorite. There's not anything that's dangerous about the game.

You have two plastic guns and you use metal marbles that are a little bit bigger than a BB to shoot two items shaped like a star into your opponent's goal until somebody wins. It's pretty much a game of speed because you have to keep loading the gun with the BB's when you run out (which is pretty often). It also tests how good your aim is. If you have any kids, I'd recommend getting Crossfire, it'll be an instant classic in the house.

I got my first expierence of this game when I was really little, but I don't remember that. I played this game while on vacation at New Jersey, 4 years later and I loved it! So on the way home we stopped at Toys 'R Us and got one. It's nice chaotic fun with a strategic feel. There's these 2 guns at the ends of a board, and you have these marbles and 2 pucks. You start machine-gunning marbles into a puck to try to push it into an oppenent's goal. Keep reloading! One of the guns is more powerful than the other, but that one has more rapid fire. This is great fun!

I had this game when I was a kid! Actually I think it was my brother who recieved it as a christmas present but, my family would all take turns playing it with one another.In fact, this game really stands the test of time because my parents still have the very one that I used to play with as a kid and whenever the grandkids come over, including my two children they head right for it! We will be moving early next year, due to my husbands job and we will be living very far away from thier grammy and grandpa so I will be sure to buy my kids this game this christmas so that we have one in our home! This really is the best game out there and even though the age group recomendation is 7 and up my son and nephew who are far younger {2 and 4} even join in on the fun. It really is rare that you find a toy that the whole family can enjoy. This is one of those toys!
