How To Play Bingo Bowl
Bingo Bowl is a 50 ball room that is exclusive to William Hill Bingo and it uses the popular pastime of ten pin bowling as it's theme. The bingo room is designed to give you a feeling of being at a bowling alley. At the top of the screen you have the area where the numbers are drawn as well as details about the game. Below this is a community jackpot comprising of numbered bowling pins on a bowling lane. Regular game cards are then shown in the remainder of the screen. Although the layout is typical with respect to Virtue Fusion bingo rooms this is most certainly one of the better looking rooms on the platform. To play Bingo Bowl you simply need to purchase a ticket and wait for the numbers to be called! Tickets typically cost 5p to 10p and you can purchase up to 35 per game. Each bingo card comprises of ten different numbered pins. Mark off all the 10 numbered bowling pins on your bingo card before your fellow roomies to win the full house.
Lucky Strike & Kingpin Jackpot
As a 50 ball variant there's only one base game prize in Bingo Bowl. The full house prize is awarded as in any other game, but in addition to the main prize there's also a Lucky Strike Jackpot on offer. This activates when you mark off your numbers in a fixed number of calls. At time of writing the prize was just over £2600 and it could be yours by calling house in 15 calls or less. In addition there's also a Kingpin Jackpot available and this is in play continuously. This is community ticket of bowling pins which are marked off each and every game. The number to be marked off is represented by the call that generates the full house. If the FH number corresponds to any number that isn't golden on the community ticket then the player wins £5. However if the FH number completes the community ticket then a £50 prize is awarded. Once the Kingpin Jackpot has been won it's reset and 10 new numbers are then in play!
Our Verdict
We're always pleased to see new variations on the bingo game and it's also great to see Virtue Fusion offering 'exclusive' versions to different sites. Whilst there are similarities to Sky's Mystical Bingo, Bingo Bowl is sufficiently different to make it worth a look. In a bingo sense the bowling theme makes a lot of sense and we're surprised a site like Tombola didn't pick up on it. We also like that Bingo Bowl is cheap to play at 5p or 10p a ticket plus it has three good prizes on offer. The only real disappointment is that for some reason William Hill like to keep it out of the spotlight. In fact they do the same with their Day At The Races Bingo. Both are decent versions of 50 and 40 ball bingo respectively - better than some other variants - but because they're exclusive are hidden behind the network rooms like Fluffy Favourites and Rainbow Riches.
