Template:Minigame-infobox Darts of Doom is a Bowser mini-game in Mario Party 4.

Gameplay

In this mini-game, players have to throw three darts simultaneously at a dart board with eight point numbers (1, 5, 10, 30, 50, 70, 90, and 100) and Bowser's face on the bull's-eye by pressing A Button. Once a player throws the darts, Koopa Kid checks the board and announces the total score for the player. Once all participants have thrown their darts, Bowser announces the loser of the game, and the player with the fewest points gets burned by Bowser, making them lose the game, and losing coins or items in the process (in Party Mode, Story Mode, and Extras Mode). If a player hits the Bowser emblem in the center of the board, the game ends immediately, and that player gets burned.

Controls
