Not to mention the fact that a total of eight players can enjoy it at once with a fully functioning score display. So, ditch the pen and paper as well as the human tendency to fudge the scores. Best believe that this game offers up pure and fair fun. What makes it even better is the fact that it comes with a total of 39 games coupled with 179 options. Guess what? A whopping 7 of these happen to be cricket games. It certainly does not get any better than this, that’s for sure.

For those who want to opt for a more realistic and competitive feel, there are options that can make that happen. The Arachnid Cricket Pro 800 happens to be equipped with an optional 3 level Heckler feature. Best believe that this takes entertainment to a whole other level. This game is undoubtedly a vibe all on its own. There’s also the physical aspect of this electronic dartboard. First, it offers up a regulation target area that measures 15.5 inches. As a result of its NNylonTough segments, durability and playability are no issue at all. No matter the capacity it is used in, this is a viable choice for individuals who aim to have some nice, clean fun.

Users have the option of choosing any one out of 27 games with the WIN.MAX Electronic Soft Tip Dartboard Set and that is just the tip of the iceberg. There are tons of options and features that make this one of the most engaging electronic dartboards out there. Every aspect here is so well-thought-out that it is undoubtedly the top contender. With a total of 27 fun-filled games and 195 option for unlimited entertainment, this is the dartboard to get behind. What’s even better is the versatility of this game. Whether users want to play solo or with their friends, there are provisions in place for that. A total of eight players can compete against each other on this one, but that’s not all there is. Taking this to a whole other level, when playing against the computer users get to choose from 5 skill levels. There is really no limit to the fun that can be derived when using this product.

Where there’s a competitive game, there has to be accountability, well the WIN.MAX electronic dartboard has got that covered. Players do not need to bother stopping to keep score with this one. Thanks to a handy LED display, the real score is available as the game progresses. In fact, up to 4 player’s scores can be viewed all at once by simply pushing the player/page button.

All the darts, adapters and even a handy instructional manual is part of the deal.

It may come in the form of a dartboard, but there is no doubt that this is a statement piece. It is undoubtedly a worthy addition to all living spaces ranging from the bedroom to the office. Best believe that this is not just another pretty face, there is so much more to the Franklin Sports dartboard than what meets the eye. Players have the liberty to choose from an array of 28 programmed games of different types with over 100 variations. The truth is that just one game can prove to be a bit monotonous, so this dartboard offers up the perfect solution to that. With its large playing area, which happens to measure 5. 5 inches, this electronic dartboard offers up stellar playability for both competitive and practice games.

What’s even better is the fact that it keeps scores when it comes to competitive games. Thanks to the addition of a built-in LED scoreboard, users can simply pay attention to their game while the board does the rest. There’s nothing like a fair game to amp up the fun and competitive spirit. On a more physical level, this dartboard offers up an incredibly easy setup. Mounting this baby does not require much, especially since it comes with everything required for the setup. What makes it even better is the built-in storage that is included. Users can rest assured that their darts and other hardware will remain safe once the games are over.

All components here work hand-in-hand to ensure that this is a highly functional choice for all lovers of the game. There is no denying the physical appeal of the Fat Cat Electronx Electronic Dartboard. Both aesthetically and structurally, this is definitely the option to beat. For instance, it comes in a design which does not only ensure the longevity of the board itself, but also the walls surrounding it. There’s a large catch ring around the target face which acts as a landing zone for missed shots. This ensures that your wall does not take that much of a beating while you get a good hang of the game.

It is also equipped with an ABS cabinet which holds all the hardware needed to play the game. This saves a whole lot for both storage and safekeeping. Obviously, there’s more to this product than a sturdy board and a functional casing. There is no doubt it offers players access to fun like never before. With a total of 38 games and 167 scoring options, there’s so much available for users to enjoy. In the case that a solo game is what is needed, there are up to 5 skill levels readily available. Otherwise, there are provisions made for up to eight players to enjoy all the games to the fullest. Even better is the fact that everything needed to play the game is included in the packaging. All the darts, spare tips, mounting hardware among others are included to ensure that the fun starts immediately.

Our first product and pick for the best electric dartboard across the board is the Viper 777 which is tournament sized to appeal to more serious players, but the wide range of potential games and variations will also appeal to those who just love to have fun, too.

The ultra-thin spider minimizes the number of bounce outs for more accurate scoring and a more authentic feel, while the soft tip darts ensure you don’t damage your wall. It can accommodate 8 players, and the automatic scoring system guarantees any arguments over whether points count or not as a thing of the past.

Second, the Arachnid Cricket Pro is another tournament quality option with a 15.5” target area that’ll feel just like you’re Phil “The Hammer” Taylor when you next get up to take your shot, although there’s likely to be less rowdy drunken fan fare behind you.

It comes with 24 games and 132 options for excellent versatility, while the highly responsive sensors are accurate to ensure proper enjoyment and realistic play. With it, you can play against 7 of your friends and family (or randoms you challenge on the street), although the LED screen only displays 4 scores at a time. Also included are player handicap features to level the playing field, and player throw prompting to keep the game flowing.

If you’re looking for an electronic dart board you can play with long into the night but also don’t want to splash out too much of your hard-earned cash, the Fat Cat Rigel is a fantastic option that will not disappoint. It’s slightly smaller than your average dartboard, but this will only improve your precision, while the LED display is clear and easy to read.

Accented in proud red, white, and blue (to appeal to players on both sides of the Atlantic) and both Old Glory and Union Jack dart motifs, it’s a true patriots dartboard. These designs are split between the 6 included darts, and you’ll also get replacement dart tips to make up for when they snap from overzealous throwing.

Coming in a fancy and painfully sophisticated cabinet sure to class up your games room as soon as it’s installed, the Viper Neptune is a dartboard that’s entirely out of this world. (Because, y’know, Neptune, get it?)

Anyway, to keep with the classy look, it is regulation size at 15.5”, and comes complete with 57 games and 307 options across 5 difficulty levels to appeal to experienced and novice darts players. The thin spider eliminates (or at least minimizes) the risk of bounce outs for better accuracy in the scores so there’s little argument over who’s truly the best around.

Our final Viper selection is the Viper Specter which again meets tournament regulation sizes and boasts a plethora of features to maximize the potential for both casual and more competitive play. The ultra-thin spider easily separates segments and reduces bounce back, while the large dart ring around the perimeter prevents broken dart tips and ensures easy retrieval, however, the provided darts can sometimes be a little tricky to pull out, especially if you’re not yet aware of your own strength.

Within, there are 50 games with 704 playing options including all the classics (301, 501) and more obscure games you’ll only really know about if you’ve played them before. If not, this is your chance to master them and show off to your buddies next time it’s your turn to host. The electronic score keeping ensures accuracy, and voice options are available in both English and Spanish for bilingual enjoyment. Mounting hardware is included and the board can accommodate up to 4 players. Our guide to the best two-player board games features more awesome games you will love.

The Triumph Sports Evolution boasts a full TruColor display to throw your dartboard far into the modern world. Also included is a 15.5” target area and automated scoring and cricket score display for easy, hassle-free play.

It comes complete with 6 soft tip darts which you can use to explore any of the 34 games and 183 variations for versatile play and endless enjoyment. This makes it great for family game nights, especially if you’ve exhausted Monopoly and Clue, or everyone just refused to play with you any longer. You can also practice against the computer or go for the single player mode if everyone’s thrown their toys out of the pram because of your mighty dart prowess. However, the interface only displays scores for 2 players at a time, which isn’t ideal but also not a deal breaker, and the plethora of additional features should keep you interested, because it’s not everyday you get to play darts with fun cartoon character avatars, is it?

True darts aficionados will fall head over heels with the high-tech wonders of the Gran Board 2 Bluetooth which, as the name suggests, uses Bluetooth 4.0 to connect you to the digital world for score tracking and allows you to test your skills against opponents all over the world. Only as long as they’ve got the same dartboard and app, though.

Included is a variety of fun games including all the classics, while the regulation size target makes you feel you’re right there at the tournament. The spider ensures little bounce off – although nothing is entirely perfect – so you’ll get one of the most authentic bar-like dart boards around. The app is easy to use, even if you’re not the most tech savvy around, however, some older devices may struggle to hold on to the Bluetooth connection, so be wary of this before purchasing to ensure you can enjoy all the features you want, especially considering the price.

The Arachnid Bullshooter E-Bristle comes with 6 soft tip and 6 steel tip darts for versatile use and a better feeling of authenticity when your more experienced dart playing buddies come over to show you up. The target area measures 13.5”, so it’s not as large as regulation size but still offers plenty of space for you to hit the bullseye.

You can take advantage of 38 available games and explore up t6o 183 variations of your favorite games, as well as ones you’re not too familiar with. The active score window updates automatically, and the LED Cricket score symbols keep the score clear for all to see. This will either be a great or terrible thing depending on your talent.  It’s easy to use, and it comes complete with the AC adapter for immediate use (and no worries about replacing batteries) but unfortunately, the electronics aren’t as reliable as other options and you might occasionally get an incorrect score. At least you’ll be able to work on your Math skills, though. For those of you who also like card games, we have prepared our selection of the best card shufflers, so be sure to check them out.

Despite sounding like an error popping up incessantly on your desktop, the WIN.MAX Electronic Soft Tip is a reasonably priced dartboard for more casual fans who just want to accessorize their man cave, games room, or garage for the next time the whole family comes over.

It features 21 games with a substantial 65 variations. While this isn’t the most we’ve found, it’s still enough, especially if you’re not too clued in on the nuances of dart games (and we’re sure you’ll only play 301, 501, or Round the Clock). The ultra-thin spider does what any decent dartboard should dso and minimizes bounce back, while the wide catch ring ensures easy dart retrieval. It comes with 6 darts and an AC adapter and can accommodate a variety of players so you can enjoy team games, one-on-ones, or tournaments all day long, and maybe all night long, too.

Our final pick in our search for the best electronic dart board is the super-cheap Franklin Sports FS1500 which at less than $20 is spectacular value for anyone looking for a simple, hassle-free option to inspire a love of the other beautiful game in their kids.

The target area measures 13.5” in diameter, while the voice and sound effects are a fun little addition and unlike other (and more expensive) options, they’re loud and clear, but not too loud that it’ll put you off your game as you step up to the throw line. You’ll get 6 darts with replacement tips, and the included hooks ensure an easily mountable board for immediate fun. The darts won’t always stick in, but for such a price, you shouldn’t expect premium quality, and if the love of darts sticks with the family, there’s always an opportunity to invest in your own, higher quality darts to perfect your skills.
