Same rules as standard Cricket except there is no point scoring. The object of this version is to
be the first to simply “close” all the appropriate numbers (15 through 20 and the bullseye).
NO-SCORE CRICKET:
(Press SELECT button when Cricket is displayed)
This game is a variation of Cricket. The game consists of two rounds. The players have a
different objective in each round. In round 1, player 1 tries to “close” (score 3 hits in each
segment - 15 to 20 and bullseye). During this time, player 2 attempts to rack up as many points
in the segments that the other player has not yet closed. Once player 1 has closed all
segments, round 1 is complete. In round 2, each player’s roles are reversed. Now, player 2 tries
to close all the segments while player 1 goes for points.
The game is over when round 2 is complete (player 2 closes all segments). The player with the
highest point total is the winner.
SCRAM:
(For 2 players only)
Same basic rules as standard Cricket except once scoring begins, points are added to your
opponent(s) total. The object of this game is to end up with the fewest points. This variation of
Cricket offers a different psychology to the players. Rather than adding to your own score and
helping your own cause as in standard Cricket, Cut-Throat offers the benefit of racking up points
for your opponent(s), digging him in a deeper hole. Competitive players will love this variation!
CUT-THROAT CRICKET:
This game is another variation of Cricket that requires precision dart throwing. The game
consists of two rounds. The players have a different objective in each round. During the first
round, player 2 attempts to throw bullseyes – with the objective of needing 9 to complete
round 1. Double bull (red center) counts as 2 scores. Any throw that does not hit bullseye is
credited to player 1’s point total. For example, if player 2 throws a 20, a single bullseye, and a 7
during his/her turn, player 2 will have one bullseye subtracted from the 9 needed, and 27 points
will be credited to player 1’s point total. Player 2 must exhibit accurate bullseye dart throwing!
