Tino
The electronic scoring throwing game. Toss bean bags through colour-coded holes to rack up points — the built-in LED scoreboard tracks everything automatically.
Available nowPoint values
Each hole is worth a different number of points. The harder the target, the bigger the reward.
Setup
- Mount the Tino board securely to a wall or prop it against a sturdy surface at a slight angle. The board should be stable and not move when hit by a bean bag.
- Switch on the electronic scoreboard using the power button at the base of the board. The three LED displays will light up — the centre shows the timer/round counter, and each side shows a player score.
- Stand back from the board. We recommend a throwing line 2 to 3 metres away for adults, or 1.5 metres for younger players. Mark the line with tape if you like.
- Divide the bean bags equally between players or teams. Each player gets the same number of bags per round (we recommend 5 each).
How to play
- Players take turns throwing one bean bag at a time, aiming for any of the six holes on the board.
- When a bag passes through a hole, the electronic sensor detects it and automatically adds the points to the active player's score on the LED display.
- If a bag hits the board but doesn't go through a hole, no points are scored — but the bag stays in play for style points.
- After all bags have been thrown in a round, collect them from behind the board and start the next round.
- Continue for an agreed number of rounds (we suggest 3 to 5 rounds). The player or team with the highest score at the end wins.
Game variations
Once you've got the basics, mix things up. Tino has three alternative modes — Target Chase, Countdown and Speed Round — with full rules in five languages.

- Underarm throws with a gentle arc tend to be more accurate than overarm throws. Think horseshoes, not cricket.
- The centre red hole (50 points) is smaller and harder to hit. If you're behind on points, go for it — otherwise the 20 and 25 holes are better value for consistent scorers.
- Keep a bag or two for the end of a round so you can make strategic throws when you know the score gap.
- For outdoor use, avoid playing in strong wind as lightweight bags can be affected mid-flight.
Care & storage
Wipe the board clean with a dry cloth. Store indoors or in a dry place. The electronic scoreboard runs on batteries or USB power — remove batteries if storing for long periods. Bean bags can be wiped down with a damp cloth if needed.
