Bingo: New offering developed for Smartphones

0/24/09 - Mobile gaming solutions provider Spin3, powered by Microgaming, has announced the launch of its new bingo-themed instant-win game, Bingo Bonanza, exclusively developed for web-enabled Smartphones.

Bingo Bonanza brings the excitement of a lotto-ball draw combined with a bingo theme to the mobile platform. Six balls are drawn and any two matching balls complete a winning combination. The value displayed on the balls is multiplied by the players' bet, providing the chance to win up to 20 000 times the original bet.

Spin3 has added Turbo Mode, which accelerates the animation to provide a quicker, more streamlined playing experience. A variety of colour schemes also allows players to personalise the look and feel of the game.

The bingo-style game is Spin3's eighth web-based game and second web-based instant win game. Bingo Bonanza joins Spin3's growing portfolio of lottery-style, instant win, non-casino style games such as the recently launched Dragon's Fortune, Scratch 'n' Score and the classic Scratch Card.

Matti Zinder, Head of Spin3, said, "Combining the popularity of bingo with instant-win excitement is an ideal offering for a lottery industry looking to go mobile. Casino operators as well as lottery providers will see Bingo Bonanza as a great opportunity to provide their customers with a new and compelling instant win mobile game with a popular bingo theme."
