A Cruciform Church is a term describing anything that is cross-shaped. The actual word 'Cruciform' means 'a cross-shaped church'. The reason why Christians have Cruciform Churches is mainly because the cross is related a lot with Christ and how he died on a Crucifix. This is the typical image of a Gothic church.
