Your turn on 121: the checkout route treble 20, treble 15, double 8, the keypad, and Rival saying he does not think you will finish it.
Rival throwing: the dartboard fills the screen, his first dart has landed in the single 20 while he aimed for the treble.

The screens show sample data.

Meet Rival.He throws like a person.

Most dartbots hand you a score from a table: 45, then 60, then a checkout that never misses. Rival throws darts. He picks a bed, aims for it, and lands somewhere near it, the way a human hand does. You see every dart arrive on the board, with a dashed ring where he was aiming. When he goes for double 16 and lands just outside the wire, you watch it happen.

  1. Tell it what you average

    Under 30, 30 to 45, 45 to 60 or more. Not sure is fine too. Rival starts there, so your first leg is already a fair one.

  2. Throw, type, watch him answer

    Throw your three darts at your own board and type the score on big keys. Then Rival takes his turn on screen, one dart at a time, at a pace you can follow or skip.

  3. He adapts, you climb

    After every leg Rival moves towards your last ten legs, at most six points at a time, so one lucky leg does not swing him. Average more and he climbs with you, from pub player to club player, league player and beyond.

The home screen: Rival, his line, the match format, and the head to head of 4 matches to 3.

A darts scoreboardthat keeps up with you.

The score bar works like the graphic on television: whoever is throwing is lit up, with the score left big enough to read from the oche. On a finish you see the checkout route, built around your favourite double.

Every visit is saved the moment you enter it, so a leg survives a phone call, a closed app or a flat battery. Your average, first nine average and checkout percentage are counted properly, including the darts you missed at a double.

  • Big keys you can hit from a step away
  • A referee who calls every score, up to "One hundred and eighty!"
  • A banner for a 180, a ton and every Rival bust
  • Single legs or matches of first to 2 or 3 legs
The result of a leg: Leg won, 121 checked out in 3 darts, and the averages of both players.

Friends round?Everyone on one phone.

Enter up to four names and play. No accounts, no invitations, no sign up. The middle of the screen keeps a chalkboard the way a scorer at the club does: a column per player with every visit and what was left after it, so a typo is easy to spot and nobody argues about the score.

Legs with friends are free, every day, as many as you like.

Practice thatfeels like a game.

Around the Clock lights up the bed you need on the board: 1 to 20 and then the bull, one dart at a time. Tap hit or miss. The board fills with lime as you go, and your record is the fewest darts.

121 checkout gives you three visits to finish from 121. Check out and the target goes up by one; miss and it goes down, never below 121. Your record is the highest target you ever finished.
