The professional darts scorer for real games — 1 to 4 players, checkout suggestions, bust detection, leg tracking and full match stats.
Play 501 or 301 against a bot anywhere — you work out your own scores, training your match maths under pressure.
Shanghai on 10–15, one dart at every double from 1 to 20 plus the Bull, then Shanghai on 15–20. Fifty-seven darts, a score out of 3380 and a grade showing exactly where your game sits.
The classic John Part routine — take out every score from 61 to 100 in six darts or fewer. Fast finishes score big.
Start on 27 and hit every double in order. Miss all three darts and the points come off. Survive to the bull.
Hit the target each round or your score is cut in half. A brutal test of nerve that's even better with mates.
Score on the round's number — land single, double and treble in one visit for an instant Shanghai win.
Hit 1–20 in order then the bullseye. The first drill every player should own — and a great warm-up forever after.
Eight visits, twenty-four darts, biggest total wins. Level targets from beginner to county and a personal best to chase.
Random doubles from 1–20, tracked hit rate. Build the confidence to close legs when it matters.
Track your hit rate on the big trebles — the most important scoring skill in darts, trained properly.
Start at 121 and finish on a double. Every success raises the bar by one. How high can you climb?
A checkout ladder: one visit to check out 50, then 45, 40 and on down to 10, all on a double. Miss and you go back up a step.
As many points as you can in 30, 60 or 120 seconds. Pure pressure, brilliant as a session opener.
Nine or eighteen holes, treble for an eagle, double for a birdie. The one game here where the lowest score wins.
Only your third dart counts. Finish 101, 301 or 501 on a double with everything riding on one throw.
Play solo legs of 501 on your board and track darts-per-leg over time. Simple, honest match practice.
No games match that filter — try another.

Why These Games Work
The Classics, Scored Properly
These are the games darts players have always played — the pub games, the practice routines and the formats every league player knows — each one built out properly with scoring, stats and personal bests. Miss your number in Halve It and it costs you. Leave a double standing in Bob's 27 and your score bleeds. Get some mates round for Shanghai or Golf Darts, scored on one phone with the full rules on the page.
If you're training rather than playing, pick by weakness. Doubles letting you down? Doubles Practice and Bob's 27. Checkouts falling apart between 61 and 100? Catch 40 is the classic routine for exactly that range. Scoring power flat? Timed Scoring and Trebles Practice. Brand new to the board? Around the Board builds accuracy without punishing you for it. And for real matches, the Live Scorer handles 501, 301 and Cricket for up to four players with checkout suggestions and full stats.
When you've worn the classics out, our own inventions live on the Dart Starter Games page. Fancy a party format instead? Killer, Round Robin, Gotcha! and Tic-Tac-Toe Darts have moved to Multiplayer Games — and the adaptive Training Plan will build sessions from all of them around your logged results.
