    Classic Dart Games

    COUNT-UP

    The simplest classic game! The objective is easy: just try to get the highest score within the game rounds to win! Each player throws 3 darts per round and must achieve the highest score possible, making it a great way to practice and improve. Count-Up is not only an easy game for beginners, it's also an ideal warm-up game for more experienced players.

    01 GAME

    A race to zero! In this game, the goal is to reduce your starting score (301, 501, 701, etc.) to exactly 0 the fastest. Each throw subtracts the points of the target hit, but be careful not to go past zero—doing so results in a bust! This is the most popular game among players of all skill levels and offers a fun yet challenging dart experience.

    CRICKET

    A game of strategy! Use both offensive and defensive tactics to claim seven target areas: 15, 16, 17, 18, 19, 20, and the Bull (center). Hit an area three times to 'open' it for scoring, then compete to rack up points before your opponent 'closes' it by hitting it three times. The goal is to take control of the target areas before your opponent and score as many points as possible. Cricket is perfect for players seeking high-stakes gameplay with a competitive edge.

    Board Breakdown

    Scores are calculated based on the multiplier of each ring on the dartboard.
