How to play Bingoo

Bingoo is a free multiplayer version of the 5×5 number-grid game sometimes called number bingo. Instead of a caller drawing balls, the players take turns calling numbers.

The card

Every player's card holds the same numbers arranged differently: 1 to 25 on a classic 5×5 card, up to 1 to 100 on a 10×10 card.

Step by step

1. Create or join a room (up to 8 players, bots welcome).
2. Arrange your card within 60 seconds.
3. On your turn, call any number not yet called; it is marked on every card. If your turn timer runs out, a random number is called.
4. Every full row, column or diagonal is one line and crosses off one letter of BINGO. Five lines make BINGO.

Winning modes

Ranked: finishers are placed in order while the rest play on. First BINGO: the round ends with the first player to complete five lines.

Strategy

Put the numbers you plan to call on cells that sit on several lines: the centre of a 5×5 card is on four lines, corners on three.
