Bingo might be a simple game, but there\u2019s a lot of different ways to play!<\/em><\/p>\n\n\n\n

Part of bingo\u2019s beauty is how easy it is to understand and play. You\u2019ve got a set of numbers and if luck is on your side they\u2019ll get called. However, as time has gone on, more types of bingo have been created and played. Today, you\u2019ve got five common types of bingo plus any exclusives you might find online.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Casino Time has a long history of running physical bingo centres in Ontario, and now we\u2019ve branched out into online bingo. To bring you the best online experiences in the province, we\u2019ve teamed up with our bingo supplier, Pragmatic Play, to give you the classic games you love and some fresh new ones to try. Check out all the different types of bingo games you can play in Ontario below.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

<\/a>90-ball bingo<\/strong><\/h2>\n\n\n\n

90-ball bingo is the staple game you\u2019d find in any bingo centre in the UK. The card you use for 90 ball bingo features three rows and nine columns with five numbers on each of the lines.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

The goal here is to complete horizontal lines, each with a chance to win and bigger prizes up for grabs wtih the more lines you\u2019ve completed. Numbers will continue to be drawn out of the 90 total until someone fills every spot on their card for a full house, ending the game.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

In any type of online bingo, you\u2019ll need to buy your tickets (cards) before you hop into a game and then once you\u2019re in start dabbing away. Or, if you want to sit back and let the game keep track of the numbers for you, you can switch on the auto dabbing feature.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

<\/a>80-ball bingo<\/strong><\/h2>\n\n\n\n

A slightly shorter type of bingo compared to your 90 ball, 80-ball bingo has two main differences:<\/p>\n\n\n\n

    \n
  1. Rather than the 3×5 setup of 90-ball bingo, you use a 4×4 grid with a different colour for each vertical column.<\/li>\n\n\n\n
  2. You don\u2019t just try to make horizontal lines, you can use vertical and diagonal lines to win as well.<\/li>\n<\/ol>\n\n\n\n

    In 80 ball bingo there are specific kinds of lines you can use to win:<\/p>\n\n\n\n

    You can of course still play for the full house, but with more chances to win, there\u2019s an added layer of excitement!<\/p>\n\n\n\n

    <\/a>75-ball bingo<\/strong><\/h2>\n\n\n\n

    If you\u2019ve ever had a crack at bingo in Canada or the US, chances are you\u2019ve played 75-ball bingo. How it differs from other types of bingo is that your card is a 5×5 square, and rather than using the same lines each time you play or fill out the whole card, there are winning combinations that change from game to game.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

    No two games are the same, with the unexpected adding some extra fun to your play.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

    <\/a>50-ball bingo<\/strong><\/h2>\n\n\n\n

    Following the rules of 90 ball bingo but with fewer total numbers, 50-ball bingo runs on a 2×5 grid where the aim of the game is to complete one whole line, and then potentially the whole card. There are two ways to win in 50-ball bingo, making for a shorter, simpler way to play.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

    <\/a>30-ball bingo<\/strong><\/h2>\n\n\n\n

    A short, sharp type of bingo that\u2019s only been on the market for a bit, 3- ball bingo gives you nine numbers on a 3×3 card. It runs much the same as a 90-ball game of bingo, but with far fewer numbers and a smaller card, they\u2019re a great hit if you\u2019re looking for a quick game of bingo.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

    <\/a><\/a>Bingo blast<\/strong><\/h3>\n\n\n\n

    An exclusive you\u2019ll only find in Ontario at Casino Time, Bingo Blast is a fast-paced, 90- ball game of bingo that\u2019s perfectly made for mobile! If you\u2019re keen to play on the go or from your mobile or tablet device, Bingo Blast gives you a smooth, simple and easy way to play.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
