CRICKET Cricket is a strategic game for accomplished players and beginners alike. Players throw for numbers best suited for them and can force opponents to throw for numbers not as suitable for them. The object of Cricket is to “close” all of the appropriate numbers before one’s opponent while racking up the highest number of points. Only the numbers 15 through 20 and the inner/outer bullseye are used. Each player must hit a number 3 times to “open” that segment for scoring.
SCRAM (For 2 players only) This game is a variation of Cricket. The game consists of two rounds. The players have a different objective in each round. In round 1, player 1 tries to “close” (score 3 hits in each segment - 15 to 20 and bullseye). During this time, player 2 attempts to rack up as many points in the segments that the other player has not yet closed. Once player 1 has closed all segments, round 1 is complete. In round 2, each player’s roles are reversed.
ADVANCED CRICKET A difficult version of cricket recommended for the advanced player. Players must close out the segments (20,19,18,17,16,15 and bullseye) by using only triples and doubles. In this challenging game, doubles segments count as 1x the number, and triple segments count as 2x the number. The bullseye scoring is the same as in standard cricket. The first player to close out the numbers with the most points is the winner.
OVERS The object of this game is to simply score higher (“over”) than your previous three dart total score. Before play begins, players choose the amount of ‘lives’ to be used. When a player fails to score “over “ their previous three dart total, they will lose one ‘life’. When a player “equals” the previous three dart total, a ‘life’ will also be lost. The LED display on the right will indicate remaining ‘lives’. The last player with a ‘life’ remaining is the winner.
ROUND-THE-CLOCK Each player attempts to score in each number from 1 through 20 and bullseye in order. Each player throws 3 darts per turn. If a correct number is hit, he/she tries for the next number in sequence. The first player to reach 20 is the winner. The display will indicate which segment you are shooting for. A player must continue shooting for a segment until it is hit. The display will then indicate the next segment you should shoot for. There are many difficulty settings available for this game.
Adjustable Difficulty Settings for Killer include 7 lives, 8 lives, ... 14 lives. Each option is played exactly as outlined above with the exception of the number of lives each player has in the game. In addition, for those who really want a challenge, there are three additional difficulty settings: Doubles 3 lives, Doubles 5 lives, and Doubles 7 lives. In these games, you can only “Kill” opponents by scoring doubles in their number segment. DOUBLE DOWN Each player starts the game with 40 points.
ALL FIVES The entire board is in-play for this game (all segments are active). With each round (of 3 darts) each player has to score a total which is divisible by 5. Every “five” counts as one point. For example 10, 10, 5 = 25. Since 25 is divisible by 5 fives, this player scores 5 points (5 x 5 = 25). If a player throws 3 darts that are not divisible by 5, no points are given. Also, the last dart of each round must land in a segment.
GOLF This is a dartboard simulation of the game golf (but you don’t need clubs to play). The object is to complete a round of 9 through 18 “holes” with the lowest score possible. The Championship “course” consists of all par 3 holes making par 27 for a nine hole round or 54 for a round of 18. The segments 1 through 18 are used with each number representing a “hole.” You must score 3 hits in each hole to move to the next hole.
BASEBALL This dartboard version of baseball takes a great deal of skill. As in the real game, a complete game consists of 9 innings. Each player throws 3 darts per “inning.” The field is laid out as shown in the diagram. Segment Singles segments Doubles segment Triples segment Bullseye Result____________ “Single” - one base “Double” - two bases “Triple” - Three bases “Home Run” (can only be attempted on third dart of each round) The object of the game is to score as many runs as possible each inning.
BOWLING This dartboard adaptation of bowling is a real challenge! It is a difficult game in that you must be very accurate to rack up a decent score. Player one starts the game. You must select your “alley” by either throwing dart or manually pressing segment of choice. Once alley is selected, you have 2 remaining darts to throw in which to score points or “pins.
SHOVE A PENNY Only the numbers 15 through 20 and the bullseye are used. Singles are worth 1 point, doubles are worth 2, and triples are worth 3 points. Each player must throw for the numbers in order with the objective of scoring 3 points in each segment to move on to the next. If a player scores more than 3 points in any one number, the excess points are given to the next player. The first player to score 3 points in all segments (15 - 20 and bull) is the winner.
CASINO A - FLUSH This game, inspired by casino play, tests your nerve and skill as you gamble points to defeat your opponent. The object of the game is to be the first player to reach the designated point total. The end-game point total can be changed by pressing the SELECT button. Available options include; 260, 310, 360, 410, 460, 510, and 560. Press START button and you’re ready to go. The dartboard will indicate the number you must throw for. The default “bet” is 10 points.
Your next two darts in the round count as 1x, 2x, and 3x your bet for a single, double, or triple (bullseye segment has no triple area). The segment scoring display will light to indicate the number of successful hits you have registered. Failing to hit the active segment in a round costs you the value of the bet you selected at the start of the round. The first player to reach the designated point total is the winner.
HORSESHOES This 2 -player game uses only the 20 and 3 segments to represent the two horseshoe pits. Player 1 will shoot at the 20 segment and Player 2 will shoot at the 3 segment. Scoring is cumulated per round. First player to score 15 points is the winner. Scoring for Horseshoes is as follows: TRIPLE RING = Ringer 3 points DOUBLE RING= Leaner 2 points INNER SEGMENT (Small)= 1 point Scores will only count for the player or team with the most points in that round.
BATTLEGROUND SCOREBOARD Player 1’s Army Player 2’s Army The top cricket scoring display on the dartboard shows player 1’s army segments. Player 2’s army segments are in the second row.
