Description
Darts is an educational game that tries to teach fractions to young children. It's played on a PLATO Terminal. The player is presented by a vertical timeline, with various differently-shaped balloons displayed along the side. When prompted to hit one with a dart the player must enter the location of the balloon, either in fractions or decimals or a sum of either.
