Bingo is a hugely popular game here at Unibet but it’s not all about calling the numbers!
In fact, some bingo fans enjoy playing bingo not for the game itself, but for the live chat games available on Unibet’s online casino in Canada.
Bingo chat games have grown steadily over the years and we now have a huge list of games that chat moderators will orchestrate during bingo.
This guide will take you through how bingo chat games work, how to play online bingo chat games and how to win! The perfect thing to do while you're on your way to becoming a bingo champion.
What are bingo chat games?
Bingo chat games are fun games the Unibet moderators propose while you’re playing a round of bingo. They work by the moderator asking a question — and the first person to answer it correctly wins a prize. These prizes range from free bingo cards and other bingo bonuses.
To play, all you have to do is log in to the live chat option when in the bingo suite. You can chat about anything you like and answer questions as soon as the Chat Moderator (CM) asks them.
Below are the key bingo chat games moderators offer at any time of day…
Anagrams:
The CM will state the subject the anagram is about (eg: Sport or Music) and then reveal a set of jumbled letters (eg: nisten). The aim is to untangle the word quicker than anyone else. To win you must write ‘ANAGRAM’ then your guess. The first person to correctly answer after the countdown wins the bingo bonus. Remember, your answer will be void unless you say ‘ANAGRAM’ first.
