- So you've always wanted a dart board, but could never find a place to put
- it. Well, with ^1Darts^0 you no longer have to worry about holes in your
- walls, sticking someone with a dart, or worst of all, having a dart bounce
- back at your feet! ^1Darts^0 allows up to four players, each starting with a
- score of 301 or 501. The goal of the game is to be the first player to reduce
- that value to zero.

- ^1Throwing a Dart^0
-
- To throw a dart you must set:
-
- 1.) the position on the dart board to aim for
-
- 2.) the angle to throw the dart
-
- 3.) the amount of force to apply
-
-
- In the upper left-hand corner of the screen you will see a small dart board
- with a line below it. Running along this line is a blue bar. When the blue
- bar is positioned directly below the area you wish to shoot for hit the
- <SPACEBAR>. Below the position window is the angle window. A line will pivot
- up and down, forming an angle with a horizontal line. Press the <SPACEBAR> to
- set the amount of angle. The power window is located below the angle window.
- The power bar will slide from left to right. The further to the right the bar
- is, the more force will be applied to the throw. Again, press the <SPACEBAR>
- to set this value. Once all values have been set, the computer will show the
- trajectory of the dart in the lower left-hand window on screen.
-
-
- ^1Turns^0
-
- Each player's turn consists of throwing three darts. In the lower right
- hand corner of the screen you will find the scores. The player that is
- currently shooting will have a "D #" beside the score (the # is the number of
- the dart you are about to throw.)
-
-
- ^1Scoring^0
-
- To reduce your score, you must first hit the outer ring (this area is known
- as the double ring since it doubles all values for that region) or the
- innermost Bullseye. Once you have accomplished this, any further shots will
- reduce your score by the value for the region hit.
-
- REGION POINTS REDUCED
-
- 1.) Off the board 0
- 2.) Outer Ring Double
- 3.) Inner Ring Triple
- 4.) Outer Bullseye 25
- 5.) Inner Bullseye 50
- 6.) All other regions Normal
-
- In order to win, a player must reduce their score to zero exactly. However,
- the final shot must again hit the outer ring or the Inner Bullseye when the
- score is fifty. For example, if a player is at four points, a winning shot
- would be to hit the outer ring in the two's region.
-
- ^1Leaving the Game^0
-
- To exit the game, press the <ESC> key while the position indicator is
- moving.
