Understanding the Objective
The primary objective of Killer is to be the last player standing. Each player starts with a predetermined number of lives, and the goal is to gain the killer status that will make let you eliminate opponents!
Setting Up the Game
To begin, players stand at a designated throwing distance from the dartboard, usually 7 feet 9.25 inches (2.37 meters) for a standard game. The order of play is determined either by a random draw or by each player throwing a single dart, with the closest to the bullseye going first.
The Killer status
In Killer, players aim to hit the double of their lives or commonly name the target, to gain the killer status (if its too easy it can be that you have to hit three times the double of your lives). The numbers chosen are usually determined by drawing cards or through an agreed-upon sequence. For example, the numbers 1 to 20 can be used, excluding the bullseye.
Eliminating Opponents
To eliminate an opponent, a player must gain the killer status by hitting the double of his lives one or three times, depending on the difficulty you want to implement. Each hit on the target (the double of the lives of your opponents) number counts as one life lost for the opponent. But you should know that if you hit your target after you gain the killer status you are killing yourself! Once a player loses all their lives, they are out of the game.
How to win
The Killer's objective is to take as many lives as possible from their opponents by hitting their target numbers. Each hit on the target number counts as minus one life. The last player standing is the winner!

Killer is a versatile game that allows for various customizations. Players can modify the number of lives, the target numbers, or even introduce additional rules to make the game more challenging or exciting. Feel free to experiment and find the variations that suit your preferences.
