- "Marks, tricks, playas, and pimps. Holla if ya hear me! I'm proud to introduce the most marvelous of bar room games - MAN DARTS! Three years in the makin', this baby is almost as impressive as yours truly."

Man Darts is a Bloodbath Challenge in the DeathWatch games held on Jefferson Island. It is the second Bloodbath Challenge in the Downtown area of Varrigan City, and the fourth Bloodbath Challenge overall.
The Challenge
The objective of the challenge is to swing a metal baseball bat at enemies and launch them at a giant dartboard. That bat will be automatically equipped at the beginning of the challenge. Any weapon that Jack might carry until then will be placed next to him. After the challenge ends, the bat will vanish.
Scoring points
Points will be counted as in the real darts sport, including doubles, triples, and the bullseye of course. After the game, Jack will receive points according to his score in this Bloodbath Challenge, with every point adding 500 points to his total score.
Multiplayer rules
In multiplayer, the scoring system is almost identical to the one in singleplayer: each enemy that hits the dartboard is worth points depending on where he hit it. The points are not awarded to the one who launched the enemy at the dartboard, but to the one who was supposed to do so, determined by the mask the enemy was wearing (Big Bull Mask for Jack, Madam Yang for Kojack).
Commentator Quotes
- Kreese: "Solid hit! He should try for a double!"
- Howard: "I tried a double with a donkey and a dwarf! I walked with a limp for a week, but the dwarf grew six inches, if you know what I mean."
- Kreese: "I know too much already..."
- Kreese: "Mad skills!"
- Howard: "And they told me a lot of times that playing darts in crappy bars would get me nowhere."
- Kreese: "Dude, it has gotten you nowhere! Jack made the bullseye, not you!"
- Howard: depressed "I need to drink..."
Trivia
- Although a spikeless baseball bat is used by Jack, Mathilda uses a Spike Bat during the instruction sequence.
- The scrolling text above the dartboard reads "Would you kindly aim at the bullseye?". This is most likely a reference to BioShock, where the phrase "Would you kindly..." is used as a trigger phrase to manipulate the protagonist.
