A venue system uses a tablet and overhead projector to add 22 interactive games to existing axe-throwing targets.

Landing page captured for the 2026-08-25 issue.

Field notes

PolyTarget records throws through a tablet at the lane and projects the resulting game state onto the existing target, with geometry based on a 600 mm board. The page says sessions continue through network loss because the app runs locally, while a four-digit room code keeps session controls with staff. Its 22 listed formats include standard WATL scoring, a 5×5 Connect 4 grid, five-throw Axe Poker hands, and Chrono 60 timed rounds.
