Following the standard rules, in Simple Cricket only the number 15-20 & bull’s eye
are used. All valid hits will be confirmed & displayed by the Cricket Display.

1. When a number has been hit 3 times by a player, it is then ‘open’ to that player
and any further hits will score points as thrown.
2. Once a number has been hit 3 times by all players, that number is then ‘closed’
and can no longer be scored upon by any player. At that time, the cricket score
of that number will display as O.
3. A player who has ‘opened’ a number can continue to score on that number until it
becomes ‘closed’.
4. A player wins the game when he first ‘closes’ all the numbers and has equal or
greater scores than the other players. However, if players are tied on points, or
have no points, the first player to ‘close’ all numbers wins.
5. And if a player has ‘closed’ all numbers first, but is behind on points, scoring
continues on ‘open’ numbers. If that player has not accumulated the highest
point total by the time another player ‘closes’, the player with the most points will
be the winner.
6. Options:
C00 – hit & “open” the numbers 15-20 and bull’s eye at any order.

C25 – hit & “open” bull’s eye first, then in order “open” numbers 15, 16, 17, 18,
19 & 20.

object of Player 2 is to get the highest possible score before Player 1 accumulates 9
marks. Player 2 can throw any number. However, if player 2 scores 42 points, it
counts as 2 points, if player 2 scores 59 points, it counts as 19 points. Therefore,
score is counted only when the total score of three darts is over 40 otherwise it

counts as 0 points. The first round is finished when Player 1 accumulates 9 marks. In

score. Player A can score points in the following manor Single 20 scores 20 points,
Double 20 scores 20points, Triple 20 scores 20 points.

score to those points is cut in half. The highest score at the end is the winner.
G28 BIG-6 (with options of b03, b04, b05… b19, b20, b21)
This game allows players to challenge their opponents to hit the targets of their
choice. However, players must earn the chance of picking the next target for their
opponent by making a hit on the current target first. The object of the game is to force
your opponent into losing lives by selecting tough targets for your opponent to hit
such as “Double Bull’s eye” or “triple 20”.
Single 6 is the first target to hit when the game begins. Before the game starts,
players must agree on how many lives will be used by pressing OPTION button (e.g.,
B3 represents 3 lives, and etc.). Within the two throws, player 1 must hit a 6 to
“save” his/her life. If player 1 hits the target within two throws, the next dart thrown
will determine the opponent’s target. If player 1 fails to hit the current target within 2
darts, he/she will lose the chance to determine the next target for player 2. If a player
misses all three throws, he will lose a life and the next player will get to try a random
target. If player 1 hits the target at the third throw, the target for the next player will
also be randomly generated.

Singles, doubles and triples are all separate targets for this game.
The last player with a life left is the winner.
The number of lives left is displayed by the cricket display.
G29 DOUBLE DOWN
The game starts with a base score of 60 for each player. The player has to score by
hitting the active segments of the current round. For instance, the 1st round, the
player must throw to hit segment 15. If no 15’s is hit, the player’s score will be cut by
half. The next round is 16 and so on. For D and T, the player has to hit any double or
triple and the same rule will be applied. The player who gets the highest score is the
winner.

The object of this game is to get the most marks. A player can get one mark in two
ways:
1. Gets 21 points exactly with 1, 2 or 3 darts
2. Gets the highest points up to 21 points (if no one gets 21 points in this
round)
The player will ‘bust’ when a score is over 21 points and the player cannot get a
mark. After the game is over, the player with the highest marks wins the game.

In this game each player has 9 darts (three turns) to score 100 (or 150, 200) points
without going over, or get as close to 100 as possible. If you go over you are out of
the game. The dart board will announce “Bust”. Darts that land outside the scoring
area will reset your score back down to zero. Darts that bounce out are not
penalized and do not count for any points. The number on the dartboard that you hit
will be your score. A double segment is worth double points and a triple is worth
triple. The player that gets closest to the Target Score without going over is the
winner.
