How can a game from 1986 that cost £2.99 be better than the darts mini game in the multi million pound GTA V? Well I take a look to find out.
Versions reviewed include the Speccy, CPC, C64, and Atari with a guest appearance from a very special persons hand!

Also until this week I'd never registered that the dart board in the CPC version wasn't properly round. A result of graphics ported from the Speccy?
This review (http://www.zzap64.co.uk/cgi-bin/displaypage.pl?issue=020&page=163&thumbstart=0&magazine=zzap&check=1) of the C64 version mentions digitized speech (the guy in the third column).

Cheers. I couldn't score 180 on the C64 due to the odd controls.
I daresay the controls feel normal to C64 owners, but having come straight from the CPC and Speccy versions I just found them odd.

For the same reason that the aircraft controls in the GTA games are godawful: they just didn't care. There were other things to occupy their time, like deciding whether to name their Internet cafes "Tw@t" was a good idea or not.
