Jocky Wilson's Darts Challenge

A night at the boozer playing darts and wishing I was Jocky Wilson isn't exactly number one on my list of favourite pastimes (I hate those shirts for a start) but if it's yours, at least you can't hit your mates in the eye with a dart when you're playing this.

There are tournament, round the clock (hit the numbers from 1-20 in sequence) and head to head options and you can play with up to three friends. A cursor sort of hovers over the board and it's up to you to place it and shoot before it moves off again - easy? Er... no.

Presentation's not bad (not much sound though) and the whole thing's really quite well designed - if you like that sort of thing. I'm not into darts so I can take it or leave it, but a real fan could do a lot worse than get his chubby hands round this. Nice game, shame about the shirts...
