I am attempting to like this game, Seriously I am but without knowledge of even the basics of darts other then to throw it at the board....WTF!

I can always get bulleyes in this game and I can always manage to go over...I bust! Okay, Try to get it down to zero...I keep busting.

So now, I try a different strat, Instead of getting all bulleyes, I hit the not so high numbers and I passed...WTH??

A more detailed description on how to play would be really great. Just because the developer thinks the instructions are simple enough...not all of us played or play darts!

So, the objective of this game is to go down to 0 (or as close to 0 as you can) from 501. But you can't just finish with any number. You have to finish with either a bull's eye (center), bull (ring around the center), or double (farthest outside ring). The illustration in the instructions is pretty good.

For example: if you have 26 points remaining, there's two ways to go down to zero:
1) Get a 1, leaving you with 25, then finish with a bull
2) Get any number that yields an even remainder, then finish the rest with a double (e.g. get a 6, then finish with a double 10)

Also, this game lets you proceed to the next level if you go down to a small enough number, though I don't know what the threshold is. But you get more points if you manage to reach 0.

As an aside, in real life, the fastest way to finish is to aim for triple 20's (60 is more than 50, and it's easier to hit), but somehow on this game, it's easier to get bull's eyes

I hope that long essay made sense Were your questions cleared up? Let me know if I can help. I love this game because in real life, I'm a mediocre (at best!) dart player, but on here I score! Hope Miniwitch Darts grows on you, too, happy dart-throwing!

Brilliant explaination, thank you!

By they way, you missed off a way of finishing from 26...... double 13!

Incidentally, there is no threshold of how low you have to get to pass. The score is worked out taking into account the amount of darts you've thrown, amount of busts and this is multiplied by how many you have left. So the less busts, less darts, less points left... the better!

Again, thanks for clearing things up!

Blobbostuff

Thanks for the hints & tips!

I had targeted the triple & doubles instead of the bull & bullseye. I had received a far better score then my previous 200ish. 1557 is my average score so I thank you both for helping out. Kudos to you both!

Blobbo: This is a very good game, I love it. Little hard to understand at first but overall...Truly an awesome game. I may not have understood it at first but still liked to play even though it frustrated me to no end, once learned....Sweet! Miniwitch rules! Hope to see more of your work.
