What is Jackpot Bingo?

This ain’t your grandma’s bingo, or at least that’s what this Facebook application says. Jackpot Bingo is a popular app that allows you to play the game of Bingo from home and receive points each time you win.

In a Nutshell

You can conveniently play Bingo in your own home, without even having to log out of Facebook!

Setting it All Up

Jackpot Bingo is easy to set up. It’s located in the “Gaming” and “Just for Fun” category sections. Each player is presented with a Bingo card and a “called number” on the right side of the screen. The page refreshes with each new number called. Once you get a Bingo (and it’s not that difficult), you are a sent to a separate page that asks if you want to play again.

Pros

If you like playing Bingo and don’t want to leave your home, this Facebook app is for you. It’s easy to use and has a fun design.

Cons

There are a few technical problems that the app has to work out. For instance, once I won it was difficult to get back to the game page. The page wouldn’t load properly. Also, while playing the game, the number would sometimes refuse to refresh or take a long time.

Summary

Jackpot Bingo is convenient and simple, but other than the fact that you’re not in a bingo hall, it is just a regular “grandma” Bingo game.
