How to Play Magic Darts
Quick start
Press START and choose a game with up/down or SELECT. Count Up is a simple way to practise scoring; if choosing 301, select Open In/Open Out for an unrestricted finish. Set the player count, choose a character, enter initials and select dart weight. Press START when ready. On your turn, move left/right to position the dart, then press A to stop the curve gauge, A again for the angle and A once more for power.

Magic Darts — About this game
Magic Darts turns each throw into a small test of timing and judgement. Choose your starting position, then lock in the dart's curve, vertical angle and power with successive button presses. The six games ask for different tactics: 301, 501 and 701 require an exact finish at zero, Count Up rewards a high total, and Round the Clock demands hits on successive numbers. Half It punishes missed targets by cutting your score. Character and dart-weight choices add variety, and up to four people can take turns using the two standard controllers.
