Perfect for all-family fun and friendly gatherings, the Arachnid Cricket Pro 650 electronic dart board features 24 games with 132 options, including five cricket games. The handicapping option helps level the playing field so players at different skill levels can go head to head and keep the fun rolling. You can also turn on the solo player feature for serious practice time. The micro-thin segment dividers dramatically reduce bounce-outs, while the NylonTough segments improve playability and durability. An LED game console shows player game scores and Cricket displays. Other features include a voice record feature (where the computer calls out a recorded name to announce the turn), bounce-out amend function, ranking function, and sleep mode and reset. Specifications:
- Dimensions: 29 by 21 by 2 inches (HxWxD)
- Target area: 15.5 inches (regulation sized)

 Great board |

| Reviewer: E. Barta, Papillion, NE USA |
Bought this board with a cabinet. This is one great dartboard. 99% of the soft-tip darts stick in the board no problem - if they don't, you usually missed the dartboard. The games included are enough for most players. My wife and I have played on this board numerous times since we bought it, and she's become a master. I'm still trying to catch up to her skill level.
My only complaint is that the LED's for the 3 statuses for Cricket are sometimes confusing. Green and Yellow can look somewhat similar 8 feet away from the dartboard. I would have liked to have the X and O like the Arachnid 800, but this is probably the best bang for the buck dartboard out there if you want high quality (not kiddie), and enough features for everyone but the most die-hard professional.
PS - the darts can be somewhat difficult to remove from the dartboard, as my wife has experienced. If you get the right type of darts (shorter tips & fatter bodies. . .I think the 1/4" are better), it becomes easier to remove. |
Takes electronic darts to a whole new level

First off, before you give any credence to the review from reviewer Duffy let me explain what is obvious to any thinking person. This board almost never lets the darts "bounce out" which is a huge problem with most other soft tip boards. Because it grabs the darts so well you will need to turn the darts clockwise as you try to pull them out. Otherwise they are in fact difficult to remove.
This board has provided my friends and I with countless hours of fun in the past few months. There are many games that are great for parties such as "Gotcha" and the display and playability of this board simply make is a true pleasure to use. The board colors are vivid, helping you focus clearly on your target. Sound effects are good, although I would recommend that they use a better speaker because it sounds like it's saying Bingo instead of Single. You get used to that very quick and it's really kind of funny anyway, so no worries. The Red, Orange, Green display pattern for Cricket is easy to see from the line and makes knowing your status effortless. This may seem like quite a bit of money compared to some of the other boards on the market, but once you buy it you will realize the money was well spent. |
Great for the whole family

This is a well made and fun product! We play it daily. Friends that come always want to buy their own. The only thing I suggest is you buy some good darts to go with the game. The ones that come with it are not very good.

Lotta fun!

| This has been by far the best electronic board I have ever played on. No complaints whatsoever. Dart boards never come with good darts so I didn't expect them with this board either. Buy yourself a nice set of darts and have a blast. |
Solid Pro DarBoard

| This is my first review on Amazon and only took the time because this dart board has been so solid. I have played with light 16 gram darts and the heavier 20 gram darts and have not had one dart bounce out so far. Plus, the colors on the board are very bright which is a plus and the led lights used for cricket are easy to see from a distance. The only complaint I have about this dartboard is the bulls eye that rotates when a heavier dart hits it. Not sure I understand why they added this to the board but they should remove that in their future boards. It kind of changes the game when you hit the bulls eye and it moves but otherwise, this is an awesome board. |
