Killer darts scorer
Killer is the classic pub game for a group. Every player has their own number. Hit your double to become a killer, then take lives off everyone else by hitting their doubles. Last player standing wins.

How it works
- Add 2 to 8 players. Each gets a different number, picked at random or chosen by you.
- Everyone starts with three lives (you can change this).
- On your turn, throw three darts. Until you are a killer, aim at the double of your own number. Hit it and you become a killer.
- Once you are a killer, aim at other players' doubles. Each hit takes a life off that player.
- A player with no lives left is out. The last player left wins.
House rules vary. Some pubs play that a killer who hits their own double loses a life, or that you need to hit your double several times to become a killer. Agree the rules before you start.
