How to play Darts 301

Make Darts 301 your next activity in the game library. Reduce 301 to zero on a double within ten visits. Use the example below to understand a decision. Check the rule that explains your first action. Choose a clear next step rather than rushing through the instructions.

301 double-out, ten visits, no wagering.

Build a steady rhythm

Take enough time to read a new position. If a game has a timer, learn its controls first rather than searching for them during the round. Notice the feedback after each input.

Your goal

Reduce 301 to zero on a double within ten visits. An attractive position is not enough unless the goal is met. The example below illustrates a decision.

Step by step

1. Aim the swaying sight.
2. Throw three darts per visit.
3. Singles/doubles/triples/bulls deduct their values.
4. Overshoot, one remaining or non-double zero busts the visit.

Controls

Pointer/arrow controls; Throw dart or Space. Use the control method described here for this activity. Use the visible help when you are unsure of the next input.

A useful example

With 40 remaining, a double 20 finishes a double-out leg. A single 20 leaves 20; it does not finish the leg. Your next round may have a different position, so inspect it before acting. Choose a deliberate next step.

Watch out for this

A bust restores the score at the start of the visit. A different version of the game may use a different rule. When a decision goes wrong, compare it with the common mistake described below. Start again only when you intend to leave the current round.
