Cricket Games
Cricket is a game of skill and strategy played with numbers 15 through 20
and the bullseye. A player must “mark” the number three times before that
number is “closed.” A single counts one mark, a double two, and a triple
three. Points are scored every time a player marks a number he has closed.
Once all players have a number closed, no one can score points on that
number. To win the game a player must first close all the numbers and bulls-
eye and have equal or more points that his opponents. All cricket games
default to double bull with an option for single bull.
Maximum points scored by players may be governed by a preset spread
limit in some games (see individual game descriptions). Spread limits con-
trol the point spread between players in an effort to keep a better player
from running up the score and over-extending the game. For example: if
player “A” has 89 points, player “B” cannot score more than 289 points
under a 200 point spread limit. Point Spread Limits can be toggled on or off
under individual game settings (see page 4.5).
Cricket/200
Played by 1 to 4 players. This is the basic version of Cricket. A 200 point
spread limit (default) can be turned off.
Cut-Throat Cricket
Played by 1 to 4 players. The object is to closed all the numbers and have
the lowest score. Once a player has closed a number, additional marks will
score points for opponents who have not closed that number. There is no
point spread limit option for this game.
Wild Card Cricket/200
Played by 1 to 4 players. Instead of the traditional cricket numbers, this
game will start with a random selection of six numbers from 7 through 20
(the bullseye will always be present). All numbers are “wild” and will change
at the end of each players turn if not marked. Once a number is marked it
will remain the same throughout the rest of the game. A 200 point spread
limit (default) can be turned off.
Low Ball Cricket/20
Played by 1 to 4 players. The playing numbers are 1 through 6 and the
bullseye. If the double bull is used, it will score 4 points for an outer and 8
points for the inner. Single bull scores 8 points for inner or outer. The first
