A first person account describes a 18 plus National Survival Game near Iowa City. Players wearing blue or red armbands engage in a Capture the Flag style battle on 10 acres using gas powered pistols and paint marks. The narrator creeps through woods and hills to seize the enemy flag, evading gunfire until a near encounter forces concealment.
The National Survival Game, a paint pellet clash played in wooded fields, has emerged as a nationwide phenomenon with about 12 000 adults playing weekly at 80 sites across states and Canada. New London New Hampshire based National Survival Game Inc reports plans to expand to Australia and Europe. Iowa City electrician Jerry Gerard holds the state's only dealership enabling rentals and games across Eastern Iowa counties.
