Identify this game...
« on: May 01, 2007, 02:18:08 pm »
Non-video game, two people sit on opposite sides of the play field and shoot metal balls at targets that resemble ninja stars in hopes to get one of these "targets" into the opponents "goal".

If I had to guess I'd say the game came out in '90-'93 timeframe...
If there's bees in the trap I'm catching em
By the thorax and abdomen
And sanding the stingers down to a rough quill
Then I dip em in ink, and I scribble a bit
But if it they wriggle then I tickle em until they hold still
Lemme say it again
In my land of pretend
I use bees as a mf'n pen

BTW, the game is decades old.  I used to have a really old copy from the 70s.

Cool game.
And before you ask, yes the board game with the barbarian on the cover with the cool gargoyle figure was Heroquest. ;D

Crossfire.

Hey, thanks Chad.  I've been trying to figure out the name of this game for a while now.  Brain fart I guess...

BTW, the game is decades old.  I used to have a really old copy from the 70s.

Wow.  Would have never guessed that!  Are you like a Trivial Pursuit master?

I am not like one but I am similar to one.
