TL;DR
There’s nothing like a good game of pool or darts to get your mind off the stresses of everyday life. And while you might be used to playing these games outside, they can also be enjoyed indoors—as long as you have an area that accommodates them. If you're looking for some fun new games to try out in your home (or office), here are five popular indoor games across the United States:
Darts
Darts is a game played with small missiles called darts. The game is played on a board that has numbers from 20 to 180 and is divided into segments called rings. Each ring has one segment called the bull’s eye.
A player throws a dart at their target and tries to hit it with their first throw, or they can choose not to throw any darts if they prefer not to take any risks in this round of play (which happens after each opponent throws).
The goal of this type of competition is generally trying to score more points than your opponents while having fewer points deducted during each turn (called “going out”). This can be done by throwing darts into specific targets located within each ring; however, these targets may also require multiple hits before they will count toward scoring points!
The game of darts is played in many ways, depending on the rules that are enforced by the venue where it is being played. Some common variations include:
-Number of players: the game can be played with one person against another or with two teams.
-Type of board: some versions use a circular board while others require players to hit specific sets of numbers.
-Targeting: some games use only one dart at a time while others allow multiple throws per turn.
-Scoring: the game can be played with one point per dart or with multiple points depending on the variation being played.
-Game length: some games can be played with a time limit while others are played until one team or player reaches a certain number of points.
Pool
The pool has been a part of American culture since the 1970s, and it's one of the most popular indoor games in America today. It's played by two or more players on a rectangular table covered with a green cloth or baize, with cushions around the balkline. The game is played by shooting colored balls into one of the pockets; however, if you want to play pool without getting your hands dirty (and having fun), there are many ways you can enjoy this fun activity at home!
Air Hockey
Air hockey is a popular game played on a smooth, flat table with a long, low barrier running along the sides. Players use sticks to push a puck across the table in an attempt to score points by knocking it into their opponent's goal (usually marked with plastic circles). The puck is usually made of plastic or rubber and can be made more difficult by having one side covered in holes so that it moves more slowly than its counterpart without holes.
Air hockey has been around since 1975 when Ken Wilson invented an early version called "Air Hogs" while working at his father's company. The game was originally designed to be a practice tool for ice hockey players, but it quickly became popular with other groups as well. Since 1975, many types of air hockey tables have been made—some with electronic scoring and even computer-controlled players.
Foosball
Foosball is a popular game in bars and restaurants across the United States. It's easy to learn, fun to play, and can be played by two people or more! If you're looking for something that will entertain your family over the holidays or just want something to do during rainy afternoons, foosball is a great choice.
If you're new to foosball, here are some tips to help you get started.
-The object of the game is to score more points than your opponent.
-Each team has 5 players: 4 field players and 1 goalie. The field players are placed on their respective sides of the table, while the goalie is placed in front of one side of the goals.
-To score points, you must put the ball into an opposing player's goal. If a field player puts it in his own goal by mistake, then he loses a turn.
-You can only use your feet to move the players. You can also use the handles on either side of the table to move them, but not with your hands.
-The game ends when one team scores 7 points or more.
Ping Pong
Ping pong is a table tennis game that can be played by two or four people. The object of the game is to hit the ball over the net and into your opponent's court. It's easy to learn, but hard to master because you have so many options when playing ping pong!
Ping Pong has been around since 1887 and it remains popular today. It's great fun for all ages—even babies love this indoor sport!
-In ping pong, you use a paddle to hit the ball. The object of the game is to hit the ball over the net and into your opponent's court.
-The first team to win 7 points wins!
-You can play singles or doubles, which means two people versus another two people or four people playing at once!
-There are many different types of paddles, but for beginners, I suggest using one with rubber on both sides so it won't slip through your fingers.
