What Is A Bingo Chat Game?

A chat game contains pretty much all the features of games that take place inside a physical bingo hall. There is a real chat host (CH) who moderates, entertains, and makes announcements regarding bingo promotions. There is also a bingo caller who calls out the numbers, even though these can be automatically daubed (marked). Most importantly, chat games allow for the kind of social interaction that takes place in the real world. In bingo chat games you can meet new friends and fellow players, also known as “roomies”. You can even choose to chat with your roomies from within the group chat or in a private chat window! Players can type to each other, make comments, crack jokes and have plenty of fun.
