+Crossfire is an open source, cooperative multiplayer graphical RPG and
+adventure game. Since its initial release, Crossfire has grown to encompass
+over 150 monsters, about 3000 maps to explore, an elaborate magic system,
+13 races, 15 character classes, a system of skills, and many artifacts and
+treasures. Crossfire is based in a medieval fantasy world and is similar to
+other games of this genre.
+
+NOTE: If you have GTK+2 installed, the GTK+2 (gcfclient2) client will be
+built. This client is still "experimental". While it should be fine to use,
+it isn't as well tested and isn't as stable as the GTK+1 (gcfclient) or CF
+(cfclient) clients. With respect to this, the Crossfire menu entry will
+launch gcfclient instead of gcfclient2. This can be changed with a simple
+modification to the /usr/share/applications/crossfire-client.desktop file
+after installing the package - change the "Exec" line.
