Target Toss Pro: Lawn Darts (Incredible Technologies/ 700 Wii Points)

Target Toss Pro: Lawn Darts is a new video game based on one of the nation’s most infamous backyard games. There are four types of flying-dart action to choose from: Classic Lawn Darts, 501, Cricket and Poker Darts. Each game has a unique scoring method and strategy to keep players entertained for hours. Classic Lawn Darts involves throwing three darts at two circles with an escalating Red Dot Bonus bull’s-eye in the center. 501 is similar to the classic pub darts game of the same name; throw three darts at a dartboard during eight rounds of play until all 501 points – and not one point more – are cleared. Cricket is another classic pub darts game of three tosses per round, challenging players to close out the bull’s eye and the numbers 15 through 20 before their opponent. Poker Darts involves launching five darts at a deck of 52 playing cards while attempting to get the best poker hand and highest scores over three hands.
