Kings n Queens — one bullseye, total power

Land a dart dead centre and you don't do a forfeit — you dish them out. Nominate a flip cup rival, invent a mini-game on the spot, pick who owes somebody a lap dance, crown a reluctant dancing queen, or point out the soberest person in the room for a public roast. The bullseye doesn't decide your punishment. It hands you the whole toolbox and lets you loose on everyone else at the table.

In practice it's the loudest few seconds of the night. Someone lands the bull, the group half-cheers and half-braces, and the new monarch has to think fast before the moment passes. Most people go straight for whoever's been smug all evening. Some go soft and let the table off easy — that never lasts, because somebody always demands a forfeit before the dart's even out of the board.

The smart move, if you land it: spread the power around rather than aiming it at one person all night. A crown used to settle a single score turns the game personal fast. Used to keep everyone moving, it's the best bit of the round.

It sits dead centre of the board for a reason. Smallest target, hardest dart to land, so the crown doesn't change hands often. When it does, the whole table knows exactly what's coming, and exactly who's about to make the most of it.
