Dart Machines

Dart machines are becoming more and more popular in the home and in pubs and bars, as the interest in the game evolves and the technology also improves. Darts is a great game for games nights or even just to have in the home as part of a man cave. It is an accessible game to play and is easy to set up and start playing.

These kind of dartboards in this collection are similar to a darts machine, as you will need to use soft tip darts, which are a safer option for children to use. The point on a soft tip dart is made of plastic, rather than a sharp metal material used for steel tip darts, and work perfectly with any dart machine.

What makes them so popular?

Dart machines are popular for a number of reasons with lots of built-in features that makes them a favourite choice for many players. A lot of the options in this range will come with automatic scoring which simplifies the game as you will not have to worry about keeping score. Some of the dartboards also have LED lighting and sound effects when your dart hits the target, which are similar features you would typically find in arcade games. A darts machine can incorporate that arcade game style into your home or man cave.

These soft tip boards offer plenty of precision and durability, as they have built-in sensor technology to give players accurate scoring. The darts will land in the pre-moulded holes in the board so it will not get damaged or show signs of wear and tear as quickly as a steel tip dartboard would.

Depending on the dart machine you choose many of them will come equipped with a high number of games which are programmed to provide even more gaming options. With some darts machines you can also add in a handicap option to make it more accessible for young players and anyone else who is new to the game.
