Gameplay
During the game, numbers are called out randomly as players try to score five numbers in a row, or all four corners on their card to win a “bingo”. Players are able to chat with other players as they compete against each other.[3]
Players earn coins, cards, and keys to move up levels and unlock themed rooms within the game and may have up to six Bingo cards at any given time.[4]
The games take place in themed rooms, including Vegas Lights, where the bingo balls shoot out of a classic Cadillac; Pirate's Paradise, which features a pirate map, golden coins, and a treasure chest; and FarmVille Bounty, where users are able to play inside scenes from Zynga's popular game FarmVille. As a bonus, players earn coins and tickets that can be used to unlock hidden rooms.[3]
Each player is able to see how many current players there are for a particular room, the top available prize, and how many tickets it will cost to play.[5] Players can also challenge friends to a race to see who can get Bingo first.[6]
Power-Ups
Players can buy Power-Ups to accelerate the game. Each Power-Up is different. Some Power-Ups supply the player with mystery crates and keys while others contain a free daub. Some have the ability to charge up power-ups that can be used at any time thereafter. These power-ups may add piles of coins to the board, or automatically daub different numbers, if the player is struggling to achieve Bingo.
Friend Boost Power-Up allows a player to ask friends to help. Friends can offer help even when they're not signed in, and their Facebook profile picture will substitute as a Bingo chip on the board.[7]
