Heat Check

Heat Check

Goal: build up your Heat level, keep it high and earn increasing bonuses through accurate throwing.

The game consists of 12 rounds of 3 darts. You start at Heat 0, and the maximum possible level is Heat 5.

In each round, you have 3 darts at the currently indicated sector.

Hit scoring:

  • Single = 1 point,
  • Double = 2 points,
  • Treble = 3 points.

The targets are:

20 → 19 → 18 → 17 → 16 → 15 → 20 → 19 → 18 → 17 → 16 → 15

The key element of the game is the Heat system. Your accuracy in each round changes the current Heat level:

  • 3 hits = Heat +1,
  • 2 hits = Heat -1,
  • 1 hit = Heat -2,
  • 0 hits = Heat resets to 0.

Heat cannot drop below 0 or rise above 5.

After each round, your current Heat level can add a bonus to the round score:

  • Heat 0–1 = no bonus,
  • Heat 2 = +2 points,
  • Heat 3 = +4 points,
  • Heat 4 = +7 points,
  • Heat 5 = +10 points.

Only a perfect 3/3 round increases Heat. Every miss starts cooling you down, so reaching the highest level requires several consecutive perfect rounds.

Once you are hot, maintaining accuracy becomes increasingly valuable. A single miss lowers Heat, while a completely empty round immediately resets it to 0.

Heat Check rewards accuracy, consistency and the ability to maintain a perfect run under pressure. The longer you stay hot, the more bonus points you can collect.

The game ends after all 12 rounds have been played.
