The basics of Bingo5 Lines will be familiar to experienced players at Bingo Mecca. The key goal is to mark off numbers on digital bingo cards as they are drawn randomly. Get a whole horizontal line marked off first to shout “Bingo!” and win. What sets Bingo5 Lines apart is the option to play up to 5 cards at once for bigger prizes.

Rules and Basics

The standard Bingo5 Lines game is played with 90 balls numbered 1-90. Players can purchase up to 5 digital bingo cards at a time, each with 24 random numbers plus a free space in the middle. As numbers are drawn, players daub or mark off matching numbers on their cards. The first to complete a whole horizontal line shouts “Bingo!” to stop the game and claim the prize. One line gets a small prize, two lines a larger one, and a full house with all 5 lines completed takes the jackpot. Players can also win on vertical, diagonal or 4-corner patterns in some games. The rules and prizes for specialty patterns are displayed in each bingo room.

Cards and Ticket Types

Bingo5 Lines offers both fixed-price and variable-price bingo cards. Fixed-price cards guarantee access to certain prize levels for a set cost. Variable “pick-’em” cards allow choosing 1-5 cards for different odds and payouts. Those playing multiple cards can also take advantage of auto-daub and best-card features. This automatically marks matching numbers, notifying you of your best chance to win.
