About CrossFire

CrossFire is a mission based action game where the player operates military vehicles and personnel to complete objectives in Central American locations. Operations take place in regions designated as Guatemara, Cuba, and Panama, with the primary goal of hostage extraction.

Gameplay is segmented into distinct phases that alternate between aerial and ground combat. Initial stages involve piloting a standard helicopter to clear a path through enemy forces. This is followed by an assault using a more advanced helicopter to penetrate a fortified enemy base.

The final phase shifts perspective to an infantry soldier who must infiltrate the base on foot. While controlling this soldier, the player has a limited ability to request supporting fire from the helicopter. Hostages are secured during this ground based segment, which completes the mission parameters.
