Airsoft, also known as survival game is a team-based shooting game. The gameplay involves participants eliminating opposing players by shooting them with spherical plastic projectiles shot from airsoft guns. It is most popular in Japan.
Although similar to paintball in concept and gameplay, airsoft pellets do not leave visible markings on their target and hits are not always apparent, though the pellets can leave small bruises or welts on exposed skin (and so protective gear is still recommended), the game relies heavily on an honor system in which players who have been hit are expected to call themselves out of play in keeping with honesty, fairness and sportsmanship.
