180 (a.k.a. Pub Darts in North America and World Darts on 16-bit platforms) is a video game version of the popular darts game, 501. It was ported to several different platforms from 1986-1988.

The soundtrack was arranged by David Whittaker and Jason Brooke, both employees at game creator Binary Design until 1987 and then co-directors of Musicon Design. The composer is unconfirmed: Whittaker arranged the C64 version in 1986, Brooke arranged the A8 version, and the A8 and MSX back covers say 1986. Unfortunately, these back covers are questionable, as the MSX game says 1987, the first known A8 review is from autumn 1987, and Brooke said in interviews he only got to write music as Whittaker left Binary in early 1987.
