How to play BINGOLINE

BINGOLINE is tactical multiplayer Bingo for 2–4 players. Create a room, share the code, and take turns calling numbers. First to five lines wins. No account, no download — it runs in your browser.

The six moves of a match

  1. 1. Get your board

    Every player gets a 5×5 board with the numbers 1–25, each exactly once. Quick Play shuffles one for you; Draft Mode lets you place your key numbers in snake order before the match.

  2. 2. Call a number on your turn

    Pick any number that hasn't been called yet. You have 15 seconds per turn and a 60-second total time bank — run out and you're eliminated. Take too long and the server calls one for you.

  3. 3. Everyone marks it

    Every called number is stamped on every board that has it — including your opponents'. Each call helps you and feeds them, so read their boards before you call.

  4. 4. Complete lines, earn letters

    Rows, columns and both diagonals all count — 12 possible lines. Each new line earns the next letter of B-I-N-G-O plus 5 bonus seconds on your clock.

  5. 5. Spend your power (Power Mode)

    In Power Mode every letter offers a choice of two power-ups: Eraser, Peek, Freeze, Snipe or Shuffle. You hold one at a time and fire it on your turn.

  6. 6. Five lines wins instantly

    The moment anyone completes their fifth line, the match ends. No final round, no ties to break — BINGOLINE.

Classic vs Power Mode

🎯 Classic

Pure line racing. Letters are progress only — the sharpest caller wins.

⚡ Power

Each letter offers a choice of two power-ups. Hold one, fire it on your turn.

  • Eraser

    Remove one tick from a single cell on an opponent's board.

  • Peek

    Reveal the orientation of an opponent's most recent completed line.

  • Freeze

    Skip the next player's turn.

  • Snipe

    Call two numbers during this turn.

  • Shuffle

    Re-arrange all unticked numbers on your own board. Ticks stay put.

Draft Mode

Prefer building over shuffling? Save up to 3 board layouts in My Drafts, then pick one in the lobby — or draft live in snake order when the host enables Draft Mode. Boards lock the moment the match begins, and every layout is validated on the server.

Three tips that win games

  • Call numbers on your strongest lines that appear on the fewest rival boards.
  • Watch the lines race — at 4 lines a player is one call from winning. Freeze or Erase them.
  • Bank time early. Snap-calling late with 3 seconds left is how matches are thrown.
