3 different dart throwing mini games to choose from: Spin (game 1): In this game you have 7 rounds to beat. Each round features darts which you have to throw at a spinning target. Each time you complete a round, a piece of the target falls off. The objective of this game is to make it through all 7 rounds without hitting another dart. Avoid (game 2): Try to hit a moving dartboard (target) with a set amount of darts. Try to avoid missing the target and also avoid hitting the other darts which you threw. Target (game 3): Hit the moving target as many times as you can. Objective of this game is to hit the target in the center or staying as close to the center as possible because you earn more points that way. Just avoid missing the target entirely.
