Dino Bingo Review
Way back in 2015 we told you about the arrival of Giant Bingo on the Ignite Network - the same group of sites that's headed up by Costa Bingo and that uses the Dragonfish platform. We expected that Giant wouldn't be the only new arrival for the group and we weren't wrong. It took just a couple of months for Giant to lose it's new kid status. Dino Bingo launched as a place where you can play for Jurassic Jackpots, big wins, fun promotions and crazy dinosaur delights! Again using the Dragonfish platform it describes itself as a "online bingo site filled with mega bingo games all day every day".
Introducing Dino Bingo
Unsurprisingly Dino Bingo launched with a dinosaur theme! The giant lizards were evident in the site's logo and homepage background just in case you didn't get the theme memo. Unfortunately many of the inhabitants of this particular bingo site were made extinct. This was because they looked too cuddly and appealed to children rather than a meteor hitting Earth. The loss of the dino characters is a shame but we guess a site full of more realistic looking T-Rex's ripping open prey would be less appealing to kids, but equally less appealing to people genuinely interested in playing bingo. The site today is a simplistic affair with the key content under the hood.
Dino Bingo Welcome Offer
New players to Dino Bingo can collect a £30 bonus and 30 free spins on their first deposit. Previously - up until September 2021 - new players were offered free bingo tickets on their first three deposits and no wagering terms but this has all now gone. Instead newbies can register, login and make a deposit of £10 in order to receive the 300% welcome bonus plus 30 free spins on Fruit Blast. Free Spins winnings are in real cash and therefore have no wagering requirements but wins are capped at a total of £3 (10p per spin). Wagering terms however do apply to the bingo bonus and this is x4 the amount of deposit plus the bonus.
The Bingo Academy
Dino gives you the chance to try it's games for free with a no deposit required offer. To give the games a try all you need to be is be registered with the site then login to the lobby to access The Bingo Academy. This can be found under the 'free' tab. All newbies get two days access without having to fund their account. Every 20 minutes (7am to 10pm daily) you can play a 75 ball game that has a full house prize of £1, £2 or £5. Be aware that prizes may be paid as a bonus and therefore wagering terms will apply. A further five days in The Academy are awarded after you make your first deposit.
Dino Bingo Rooms
As well as free bingo, Dino Bingo offers four variants on the popular numbers game. These include 75 ball, 5 Line 75 ball, 90 ball and 52-5 ball. The latter is All The 5s and involves playing cards instead of traditional bingo balls. A number of progressive jackpots are available when you play in the rooms. Most days you'll find a jackpot game at Dino including the £1.5K Tuesday Chill and the £50 Daily Deal. There's also a Mystery Jackpot Room and a £1000 prize to be won every Thursday. Ticket prices vary from 1p to 5p but some of the jackpot games can be a little bit more expensive.
Featured Slots
All the top slots are available to play at Dino Bingo. These are categorised by Popular Picks, Top Games, Megaways, Daily Jackpots, Drop & Wins and New. Suprisingly there isn't a tab for Slingo but there are plenty of versions of the popular slots meets bingo game to play. The slots area in the Dragonfish lobby isn't the easiest to navigate and feels very clunky. The good thing is you can favourite games to make them easier to find. Top slots include Cleopatra, Rainbow Riches, Gonzo's Quest, Monopoly, Slingo and Starburst. Although there's a tab highlight casino games this actually only includes a version of Keno and the live Dream Catcher game.
Player Promotions
Dino was quite a good brand for exclusive promotions when it launched but that's no longer the case. It does have share some exciting promotions and jackpots with it's sister brands (e.g. Costa, Sing, Angry etc) and a few with The Dragonfish Network. For example there are free bingo games such as a daily £10 bonus room for funded players, Freengo also for funded players and a £1000 free Monday jackpot. The Friday £7K is another big promotion that's well worth checking out. This consists of 7 x £1000 jackpots that play every hour from 5pm to 11pm. Tickets are only 1p each too. Look out too for the Bingo Shop which lets you pick up rewards for playing at the site.
Our Verdict
Dino is a decent enough site with free bingo, an attractive welcome bonus, jackpots and plenty of games. However there's probably not a lot here players haven't seen before! Whilst Ignite aren't quite up to 15 Network levels of repetition, the additional sites to their stable don't quite cut the mustard in the excitement stakes. Back in 2018 we predicted that Costa and Sing would take centre stage at the expense of brands like Dino. This has come true especially since 888 purchased the group from Ignite. If you're looking for a site that will offer regular promotions and prize games then Dino isn't for you. We'd love to see more game variants, bigger prizes and more promotions but that will come down to network decisions.
