Unfortunately, your dart doesn't always go where you hope since there is a strength factor to take into account as well.\r\n\r\nOn the right is the player - it's not clear whether it's supposed to be John Lowe or Eric Bristow. All that moves is his hand.\r\n\r\nSimulations like this pale very quickly, they can't even be very exciting to the dedicated darts player.","ReviewerComments":[],"OverallSummary":"","Page":"56","Denied":false,"Award":"Not Awarded","Reviewers":[{"Name":"Peter Connor","Score":"3","ScoreSuffix":"/10"}],"ScreenshotText":[],"BlurbText":[],"TranscriptBy":"Chris Bourne","ReviewScores":[{"Header":"Graphics","Score":"5/10","Text":""},{"Header":"Sound","Score":"3/10","Text":""},{"Header":"Originality","Score":"3/10","Text":""},{"Header":"Lasting Interest","Score":"3/10","Text":""},{"Header":"Overall","Score":"3/10","Text":""}],"CompilationReviewScores":[]}]}]
