Dartistry is one of Jimmy T's microgames in WarioWare: D.I.Y.

Gameplay[edit]

The game is based on the sport of dart throwing. The goal of the game is to throw the dart anywhere on the dartboard. The hand holding the dart moves around the screen erratically; a reticle following the hand's movements shows where the dart will land when thrown. The player can tap anywhere to throw the dart. The game is lost if the dart lands outside of the dartboard, or if the player does not throw the dart during the game's duration. If the dart lands in the exact middle of the dartboard, the word "Bull's-eye!" will appear in addition to the game being won.

Naming[edit]

"Dartistry" is a portmanteau of "dart" and "artistry" (meaning "significant artistic skill").
