Dart game apparatus and computer program stored in computer-readable medium for providing multimedia information

A non-transitory computer-readable medium, including code for performing a process to be executed by one or more processors of a computer system, the process comprising:

• sensing a hit location of a dart pin thrown to a dart target configured to accommodate the thrown dart pin;
• determining score information depending on one or more respective dart pins thrown by a first player based on information on the hit location, the determining of the score information of the first player to be output in response to throwing of the one or more respective dart pins;
• permitting a second player to throw the dart pin when a round of the first player ends;
• determining score information depending on one or more respective dart pins thrown by the second player;
• comparing the score information of the second player with the score information of the first player;
• and
• determining whether the score information of the second player is to be output in association with the comparison result information based on the comparing of the score information of the second player with the score information of the first player,
• wherein the comparison result information includes multimedia information that represents an overtaking or a tie, which is prestored in the dart game apparatus, and wherein the multimedia information includes individual specialized multimedia information of the first and second players, which is received from the first and second players and stored in the dart game apparatus.

• determining score information depending on one or more respective dart pins thrown by a first player based on information of the hit location, the determining of the score information of the first player to be output in response to throwing of the one or more respective dart pins;
• permitting a second player to throw the dart pin when a round of the first player ends;
• determining score information depending on one or more respective dart pins thrown by the second player;
• comparing the score information of the second player with the score information of the first player;
• and
• determining whether the score information of the second player is to be output in association with comparison result information based on the comparing of the score information of the second player with the score information of the first player,
• wherein the comparison result information includes multimedia information that represents an overtaking or a tie, which is prestored in the dart game apparatus, and
• wherein the multimedia information includes individual specialized multimedia information of the first and second players, which is received from the first and second players and stored in the dart game apparatus.

A dart game apparatus comprising:

• a dart target configured to accommodate a thrown dart pin;
• a sensor configured to sense a hit location of the thrown dart pin;
• a processor configured to determine score information of two or more players and compare the score information of the two or more players based on the hit location of the thrown dart pin sensed by the sensor;
• and
• a display including a first area displaying score information of a first player among the two or more players and a second area displaying score information of a second player among the two or more players, the display configured to output an event effect determined based on a result of comparing the score information of the two or more players,
• wherein the event effect includes an effect that represents an overtaking or a tie which is prestored in the dart game apparatus, and wherein the effect that represents an overtaking or a tie, which is prestored in the dart game apparatus, includes individual specialized effects of the first and second players, which are received from the first and second players and stored in the dart game apparatus.
