How To Play Cricket Darts
Each number is open at the start of the game, and each player takes turns throwing three darts to close each number. A number becomes closed once hit three times. A single counts as one hit, a double counts as two, and a triple counts as three hits, closing the number.
The first player to close a number can score points on that number until the other player closes it. Once a number has been closed, neither player can score points on it.
The winner of the game is the player with the most points, when all the numbers and the bullseye has been closed.
