I can only suggest that you keep on trying.  By the way you have to win 4 dart games.  Also, in case you are going to play Sherlock Holmes and the Serrated Scalpel, the old dart game sequence once again rears it's ugly head


I got through it by cheating.  I got my son to get me past this part.  He's really good with that kind of stuff.  I knew there was a reason that I gave birth to him.

You have to win 4 dart games? Are you sure you're not talking about serrated scalpel there? I'm 95% sure there's only one... just replayed the game half a month ago.

I read somewhere that their skill just deteriorates with each successive game. So, loading each time you lose definitely isn't a great idea.

Deleted UserAt least I'm in good company.  I'm stuck in the dart game too.  I played this game before (when it was first released) and I survived but this time I am a disaster.  

I like the idea of getting my sons or grandsons to do it for me - unfortunately they are in Maryland and I am in North Carolina.  They will all be here for Christmas.  Maybe I can wait that long.   :-X

There was a dart game in the Serrated Scalpel but I don't remember it being as hard as this one.  Or maybe my reflexes were better then.  

I'll just hang on and keep trying.

thank you for the advice but how do you stop the guy from always hitting the right target during the dart game

Deleted UserI played both abovementioned Sherlock Holmes games a few years ago, so please don't rely upon my (faulty) memories.

I played Rose Tattoo first.  You DEFINITELY have to win ONE darts game only.  But I found that game VERY difficult.  Later my wife played and 'gave-up' on the darts, so I did it for her otherwise she would have abandoned the very good game!
 I think I must have played it, on both occasions, somewhere around 50 times before succeeding! >
:-[ :'(
IIRC, when I later got to Serrated Scalpel (an earlier & more primitive game) I found that you have to beat several different people in the pub.  I thought it was 3, but it may well have been 4?!
My recollection is that each darts game was considerably easier than the one in Rose Tattoo (although I could be wrong?? ??? ???), but the process is lengthy since you have to play several games instead of just one very difficult one.

IMO, It's a pity since many people had to abandon the entire { otherwise excellent) game(s) } solely due to these dart contests.  A Save game afterwards is VERY questionable due to 2 or 3 reasons!!
