THE 12 DARTY PARTY GAMES

Every game comes with plain English
rules, a visual scoring guide and Shake It Up variations so you can dial the chaos up, down or sideways. Here's what's inside.

CLASSIC 501  —  MED · 20–30 MINS · 1+ PLAYERS

The original dart board game, done properly and with optional twists. Start at 501, subtract your score each turn, and finish on a double or bullseye.

Comes with Closest to Zero for younger players, 501 Relay for team play, and Nickname Multiplier — which is exactly as chaotic as it sounds.

KILLER  —  EASY · 10–30 MINS · 2–10 PLAYERS

Killer darts is the game that turns any group into allies and enemies within ten minutes — the most played game in the pack by some distance.

Includes Blind Killer, Singles Killer, One Killer Only and Double or Treble Killer.

AROUND THE WORLD  —  EASY · 20–30 MINS · 1+ PLAYERS

Hit 1 through 20 in order, finish on the bullseye. Simple to explain, impossible to
get bored of.

Added extras include Bullseye Bomb, which lets you sacrifice your turn to send everyone else back, and Skip, Switch and Swap. Also known as Around the Clock darts.

SHANGHAI  —  MED · 20–45 MINS · 2+ PLAYERS

Each round has a target number. Score points by hitting it. Win instantly by hitting
a Shanghai: a single, double and treble of the same number with your three darts, you must then shout 'Shanghai,' and do a small dance. It's in the rules.

AMERICAN CRICKET  —  TRICKY · 20–45 MINS · 2+ PLAYERS OR TEAMS

This is a great head-to-head dartboard game. Our simple dart board cricket rules take two minutes to explain, but it's one of the longer playing times in the pack.

Our favourite Shake It Up is Sticky Wicket. A brilliant faster-paced variant for families or party situations

FOLLOW THE LEADER  —  HARD · 5–10 MINS · 2+ PLAYERS

The leader throws and calls the target. Everyone else has three darts to match it
or lose a life. Fast, competitive and surprisingly brutal.

Our Captain and Crew variation turns it into a team sport — useful if you want someone else to blame for the result.

FOOTBALL  —  MED · 10–15 MINS · 2+ PLAYERS

Hit the bullseye to kick off, then score goals by hitting doubles. First to ten wins.

Our Pitch Play variant works perfectly for kids and adults in the same group. Own goals are possible. VAR is not included.

GRAND NATIONAL  —  MED · 20–30 MINS · 1+ PLAYERS

You're the horse. The dartboard is the racecourse. Race anticlockwise from 20 — miss with all three darts, and you're out of the race.

Place Your Bets adds forfeits
for anyone who backed the wrong horse. Galloping around the room is optional
but encouraged.

SUDDEN DEATH  — EASY · 5–10 MINS · 2+ PLAYERS

Everyone throws three darts. Lowest score each round is out. Simple, savage, very good fun.

Shake It Up variations introduce the powers of Reincarnation and Resurrection. 

NOUGHTS AND CROSSES  —  EASY · 5–10 MINS · 2 PLAYERS OR TEAMS

It's Noughts & Crosses, but as a dart game.

Our Shake It Up variation, Noughts and Chaos, is gloriously ridiculous. Kids love it. Adults love it. The perfect group party game or family game, game. 

BULLSHOT —  EASY · 15–20 MINS · 2+ PLAYERS

Each ring on the dart board scores differently — outer rings lose you points, inner rings earn them.

Opt for chaos with Shake It Up - 'Double or Nothing' - and please tag us in your attempts, we cried laughing at Darty Party HQ, when coming up
with this one. 

KNOCKOUT —  EASY · 15–20 MINS · 2+ PLAYERS

Beat the target score or lose a life. Swift, and satisfying.

Shake It Up, Escalator mode fixes the target and raises it every round — the pressure builds beautifully. Bedlam adds Double Trouble, Reversal and Bullseye Wipe for when you want maximum anarchy. And we love maximum anarchy.
