Throwy Darts is a mini-game you can find in Blunder Hills, rewarding you with points to spend on various upgrades and there is even a special trophy to earn that you can put in your Gallery.
You can find the Throwy Darts Mini Game at the Blunder Hills / Winding Willows map.
Throwy Darts Mini Game
Throwy Darts is a mini-game where you throw darts at a wall. The wall is divided into sections that reward points based on what color segment you hit.
You start each game with 3 lives.
The points rewards are:
- Grey - 1 Point
- Yellow - 2 Points
- Green - 3 Points
- Red - 5 Points
You can increase the amount of points you get with the Event Shop bonus Bonus Points, which gives a 1.5x multi.
If you hit 3 red middle segments in a row, you gain an extra life. You can do this an unlimited amount of times.
Every 6 successful dart throws, the Wind will change. The Wind affects the direction of your dart throws, so you'll need to adjust each throw based on it.
The Speed of which your dart moves in your hands also increases the more darts you throw throughout the entire game.
As the game progresses, the other color segments start counting as losing a life, making the game more and more difficult.
Each time you get game-over, you must wait an increasing amount of time:
- 1 game - 60 second cooldown
- 2 games - 90 second cooldown
- 3 games - 180 second cooldown
- 4 games - 480 second cooldown
- 5 games - 720 second cooldown
- 6 games+ - 900 second cooldown

Nine Dart Trophy Guide
You can also earn a special Nine Dart Finish trophy by hitting 9 darts in a row into the Red segment.
The Nine Dart Finish is well worth getting because it gives:
- +9% Drop Rate Multi
- +9% AFK Gains Multi
This can be increased even more with your Gallery Showcase Multi.
If you're new to playing Throwy Darts, it can seem impossible to hit 9 Red Segments in a row, but it's definitely doable with a little practise and keeping a calm hand.
Tips and Tricks
Practise makes perfect. Expect to play Throwy Darts for a few hours to get the feel of how darts move under certain conditions.
Your best bet of getting the trophy is to get the first nine-darts in right at the beginning of the game. This is because you will have no Wind Effect in place and also no increased speed added to the hand movement.
Since your first 6 throws will have no wind, the final 3 throws will. This is all about luck- if you get a bad Wind speed, it can make it incredibly hard to get the next 3 throws. But also, you could get a Wind that barely affects your throw, so just keep trying.
You'll also find that the longer you play, the further away your character can be positioned from the wall. If you're not bothered about collecting points for the Throwy Dart Shop, you can exit the game and restart once the timer is over.
To reduce lag/frame rate drops, make sure your character is on a channel with no other players and that you're not AFK fighting at the same time. You can often encounter hitches playing the game, so reducing as much lag as possible is important.
You can also buy the Darts item from the World 1 Blunder Hills Shop, which will allow you to play Darts from any map. You can move to a less laggy map where there are no moving monsters/NPCs then. A good map is Fractal Island in World 2.
