Giant Bingo Review
Back in 2014 the trend in bingo was to churn out site after site. We saw multiple additions to The Live Bingo Network, 15 Marketing and Virtue Fusion. The Ignite camp, which houses the likes of Costa and Sing, even joined in this trend. 2015 was expected to follow suit - and it did - with Ignite kicking off the year by launching Giant Bingo. This "super-sized bingo site" on the Dragonfish platform offers "mighty jackpots" as well as popular slots. But is it a giant amongst giants in the online bingo world?
Introducing Giant Bingo
When Giant Bingo launched it was overlooked by a character called Finn who stood astride the backdrop like a colossus. According to Irish legend, a giant called Finn McCool was responsible for building The Giants Causeway. Finn is described by Causeway Coast and Glens as a 54 foot tall giant who was responsible for the creation of The Isle of Man. The causeway was built so that Finn could take on a rival in Scotland called Benandonner. We have to say we're quite impressed with Giant for this tie in! It's a shame that this theme has been diluted because of UKGC rules. So Finn has vanished from view but still gets a mention in despatches at the bottom of the homepage.
Giant Bingo Welcome Offer
New players to Giant Bingo are welcomed with a bingo bonus and free spins which has only recently been updated. Previously - up until September 2021 - newbies were offered free bingo tickets and no wagering terms but this has now gone. Instead you're invited to register, login and make a deposit of £10 in order to receive a 300% welcome bonus plus 30 free spins on the Fruit Blast slot. No wagering hasn't gone entirely as any winnings from the free spins winnings are in real cash and therefore have no wagering requirements plus wins are capped at a total of £3 (10p per spin). However, wagering terms do apply to the bingo bonus and this is x4 the amount of deposit plus the bonus.
The Bingo Academy
Like it's sister sites, Giant 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.
Giant Bingo Rooms
As well as free bingo, Giant 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 Giant 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 Giant 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
As far as we're aware Giant hasn't ever pulled up any trees when it comes to offering it's own promotions and offers. As it has dones from day one it instead shares 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 Free 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
If you're considering joining Giant Bingo then you won't go too far wrong. The platform is good and it offers plenty of positives. These include free bingo, a no deposit newbies room, a decent welcome offer plenty of choice in terms of bingo and slots. The one thing we really love is the fact that Giant Bingo have put together a brand with an interesting back story. Whether players "get it" remains to be seen especially now Finn has been booted from view. We had hoped Giant would become big in the bingo world but sadly it's always going to be dwarfed by more established brands.
