Bingo – light relief for gamers

If you play a lot of console or pc games, you know that it can eat up time. Games can take hours of time in one sitting and you have to be careful to keep gaming in its place and not let it take over other areas of life – like making a living.

Sometimes, though, you could just do with a quick break from work without getting into a proper gaming session and that’s where those little gaming apps on your phone or online come in really useful. There’s an almost endless variety of choice when it comes to gaming apps and it’s easy to find a game that you’ve not tried before. It only takes minutes to download a new app, so there’s no need to feel like you’re stuck in a rut with these quick gaming choices.

One game that has had amazing success since it became an online game is bingo. While you may associate bingo with being a game that your grandparents enjoyed, you should look again at the contemporary versions. Of course, it’s still the same game in principle, where you have to mark off numbers that match those called during the game. For a tiny stake, you have the possibility of winning a major cash prize.

But playing online at a site like Mirror Bingo or Wink Bingo is so much easier than the land-based version. You don’t need to concentrate on the calls as the software daubs those matching numbers for you. Check out the schedule for Mirror Bingo online bingo games  and you’ll see that there’s always a game about to start, so you can play at almost any time of the day or night, and each game is over within a few minutes. This makes it ideal for those times when you want to play something, but not commit half a day to it.

And why would you pick bingo over all those other gaming choices that you have such as Bubble Shooter or Threes? Well, for a start, there’s the fact that you’re playing for real money prizes – always a great incentive, especially when the stakes are so low. And in fact you can often play games for free (still with real cash prizes to play for) once you’ve deposited a sum of money onto an online bingo account, so then it’s even better value entertainment.

Aside from the fact that it’s easy and cheap to play, bingo also has a big social side to it. As you don’t need to concentrate on the game you have time to chat to other players in the bingo site chat rooms, as well as join in the chat games (with the possibility of winning further prizes). For many bingo players the social side of the game is the main reason they play. If you choose to, though, you can simply watch the conversations – there’s no obligation to join in.

There is no comparison between a few bingo games and the kind of player experience that you get from a game like Call of Duty: Advanced Warfare, of course, but you’re not playing bingo to replicate that. You’re playing it to give you a few minutes’ diversion, and a chance of winning some cash in the process. Give bingo a try; it may surprise you how much you like it.
