Bingo is possibly the most popular game in the world, it is played in many countries in different languages around the world. However, the move to online bingo is a leap of faith for some. The main obstacle for players is trusting the system. How do we know that the numbers are random and not falsified by the computer?
Gala bingo says that the order in which the bingo balls are drawn is determined by its Random Number Generator (RNG). The uses of RNG Gala bingo have been developed by market leader Sun Microsystems. Sun says that its Virtue Fusion software ensures that the outcome of each game is absolutely random.
The Virtue Fusion network is used by several other bingo sites. The advantage of this for players is that each game will have a depth of players and a big enough prize pool to be worth playing for.
Players can mingle in online chat rooms before playing, but when the game starts, the chat ends and the serious stuff begins. The numbers are called by the host and the numbers are automatically crossed off your bingo card for you. So you don’t have to be fast with clicks to get your numbers. The chat panel constantly sends you updates on who has only two or one number so you can know where you are in the game.
Bingo games vary and some of you may already be familiar with the variations of traditional 90 ball bingo. Variations like 75 ball bingo and 80 ball bingo are self-descriptive. Games with more twist are like The Money Ladder Deal or No Deal, where the winner of the house has to choose to accept an offer from the ‘banker’ or take a prize in a box chosen at the start of the game.
There have never been so many online bingo sites to choose from. Most are based abroad and many players would not have heard of them except for some of the big names. Paddypower and William Hill have a presence in online bingo, as well as a few other major brands. However, smaller bingo houses are proving popular, such as 32Red and Gala Bingo. The competition in this sector means that players can get registration offers that are so good that they would be enough to tempt anyone. Free money to play with being the most desirable. 32Red, for example, gives away £10 to every new player, no deposit required.
Welcome offers for new players are such as:
– No Deposit Signup Bonuses
– Welcome bonuses of 100%, 200% or even 300%
– Loyalty bonuses
– Monthly bingo offers
Bingo can even be played on your mobile. William Hill Bingo has an app that can be downloaded to any device and you can play on the go, or even on the beach. William Hill will even give you £2.50 to play just for trying out his new games.
Bingo will never be the same again, but that’s progress. The variety of games and easy-to-use systems mean anyone can play. Automatic card erasing means you don’t need to be quick with your pen to play. Play as many cards as you can and increase your chances of winning.
