Dart Game: Killers Players: Two or more, best with at least three Objective: Be the last player with lives left Rules: This game is especially good for large numbers of players, or in groups with an odd number of players. Each player starts with three lives. Play begins by determining what number belongs to each player. To do this, each player throws with their off hand (left for righties, right for lefties). The number that the dart hits becomes that player's number for the game. Players cannot share a number‹if the number hit already belongs to another player, the dart must be thrown again. Bull's-eye also counts as a valid number. Once all numbers have been picked, the next step is for each player to become a "killer." To do this, they must hit the double for the number that belongs to them. Once they have become a killer, they may try to kill other players by hitting the double of the number that belongs to other players. Each hit on another player's double takes away one of their lives. If a player hits his own number, he loses a life. Play continues until only one player has lives remaining. Variations: Beginner players may be allowed to hit more than just the double to become a killer or kill another player, while expert players might be required to hit the triple instead of the double.
