Play Bully's Sporting Darts Online

Bully's Sporting Darts came out for the Amiga in 1992, published by Alternative Software Ltd. It was one of those straightforward sports simulations that felt right at home on the platform, offering a digital version of pub darts without much fuss. The game didn't try to reinvent the wheel; it just gave you a decent, no-nonsense way to play darts when you couldn't make it down to the local.

You control a dart thrower using either a joystick or keyboard to aim and release your shots across seven different game modes, including classics like 501 and Cricket. The main objective is to outscore your opponent or hit specific targets to close numbers, depending on the rules of the mode. Signature mechanics include manual aiming with a drifting sight that requires steady timing, along with strategic target selection to maximize points or block your opponent. The pacing is deliberate, almost methodical, and the difficulty comes from mastering the throw mechanics rather than complex rules. It feels like a faithful, if simple, recreation of the tension and focus of a real darts match.
