Benefits of technology

"The present invention is an apparatus and method for playing a dart throwing game with multiple scoring areas and score detracting scoring areas or positive and negative point targets. The scoring areas are arranged on a scoring board in a way that makes some areas easier or more difficult to achieve than others. The game is played by two or more players or teams, and the object is to earn as many points as possible before the other player or team. Darts are thrown one at a time, alternating from player to player or team to team. The game can be played with different colored darts and a killer dart can be used to eliminate all points in a scoring area. The method includes several special scoring circumstances, such as a knock-out punch and a sucker punch. The technical effects of the invention include increased difficulty and strategy in the game, increased scoring opportunities, and improved player or team performance."
