Bingo
Bingo
— the rules of bingo are very similar to the rules of loto (see the relevant paragraph): in this game, too, you need to take turns random chips with numbers that players mark on their cards with dice. At the same time, there are also differences. So, in classic bingo, balls with numbers play the role of chips, and they are not in a bag, but in a drum of a special design, from which they can fall one at a time. Thus, the presenter does not take out the chips with his hands, but only rotates the drum. The playing field is also different — in the classic version, the numbers are arranged in a square of 5x5, 6x6, etc., but the one who is the first to block at least one line (vertical, horizontal, diagonal) in this square wins. There are also children's variants of bingo, where the drum has the form of a "dial" with an arrow, pictures play the role of divisions, and players use figures corresponding to the pictures instead of dice.It is worth noting that due to the similarity in the rules, the border between loto and bingo is rather blurred: some manufacturers classify games that are closer to lotto as bingo, and vice versa.
