Bingo originates from a which was essentially a lottery played in Italy back in 1530 before travelling first to France, then Germany where it was even used as a maths aid, and throughout Europe before finally reaching the USA. In the UK, bingo games have not only been played in church halls and community centres as a means to raise cash but in bingo halls and complexes that sprouted up in virtually every town.
Unfortunately, the smoking ban and a number of other factors meant that many bingo halls, especially the smaller and independent ones closed their doors but, happily, the game lives on in giant bingo complexes but especially on the Internet. There is a mass of bingo sites where players can register and play a variety of bingo games 24 hours a day 7 days a week. These sites also offer a number of other benefits that help draw in the bingo fanatical crowds.
One of the features that online players love is the community aspect of the bingo site. The bingo website software will auto-daub cards and this means that you will never miss a number again. It also means that you are free to chat to your fellow roomies while your numbers are being marked off your bingo cards. You may even find a quiz, random bonus draw, and other additional features in many of the bingo game rooms.
Of course, the primary reason that players register with a site is to play their favourite bingo games. In the UK, we traditionally play 90 ball bingo and, as such, the majority of our bingo sites are dedicated to this form of the game. However, it is also possible to find sites that provide a range of other popular variants including 75 ball or pattern bingo and even fast paced turbo bingo.
Bingo games do vary a little but the objective of each game is essentially the same. Whether it’s a single line, a T pattern, or the whole card, the aim of bingo games is to cover the desired area before anybody else and if you can do this then you stand to win a decent amount of money for your trouble.
