Full Review

Online bingo is a favourite pastime for many people across the UK and beyond, which is indicated by the sheer number of bingo sites that there are out there.  However, for all of the clever ideas that come from various new or improved bingo sites, online bingo is still online bingo.  One bingo site has attempted to break this mould by introducing a new element to the game play – webcams.

Bingocams is a standalone bingo site that was launched in February 2011, with the intention of adding a whole new dimension to regular games of online bingo.  As well as playing for big jackpots and prizes, you can also interact with the chat hosts and other roomies via your webcam thanks to the B-Live Engine bingo software used by Bingocams.

Join the Webcam Revolution

Signing up for a new Bingocams account takes no great effort – there are just a few fields to complete on the three-step registration form.  You will just need some contact details and account details, including a contact phone number to get started.  The form appears to require both a landline and a mobile phone number.  However, simply complete one field and you will see a green tick next to both of them.

Bingo Bonuses

From the very start of your playing days at Bingocams you are rewarded with bingo bonuses.  As soon as you have completed the signup process, you are given a £5 no-deposit bonus, without the need to even verify your email address.

Once you decide to fund your new Bingocams account, you will be treated to a 300% first deposit bonus, up to the value of £150.  All further deposits qualify for a 50% reload bonus of up to £125.

Bingo Choice

When you arrive at the Bingocams lobby, there’s a selection of rooms to choose from, which are sorted by tabs across the top of the screen – 75-ball, 90-ball, special and free.  In total, there are over 20 bingo rooms to play in but many of these are only open for a few hours at a time.  There are clear opening times indicated on each room so working out when you can play in each room is pretty easy.

There are a number of bingo side games to play at Bingocams, which include leading Microgaming slots like Thunderstruck II and Immortal Romance.

The Bingo Cam Experience

All too often here at Two Little Fleas, we find ourselves frustrated with the same (Dragonfish)bingo software being repackaged and rehashed across the net.  However, that is certainly not the case at Bingocams.  There are a number of features to the bingo software that create an entirely unique way to play.  The main feature of the site is webcams.  There’s a chat host, who you can see and hear as the games take place.  You can also choose to activate your webcam, which will lead to a snapshot being taken of you if you win a prize, as well as an addition 15% bonus being to the winnings of webcam users.  However, this is completely optional.

 

Bingocams Chat Hosts

Chat hosts are usually just a name on a screen, offering free bingo points and bonuses but at Bingocams the hosts are so much more.  From the moment you arrive in each bingo room, you will see and hear the chat host at work.  They sit there busily trying to keep the room lively and fun…however, ‘trying’ was the operative word for our first couple of visits.  Unfortunately, the Bingocams hosts that we encountered at first weren’t exactly brimming with enthusiasm.  The very first host we encountered was coughing and spluttering throughout their shift, while the next host seemed to be struggling to stay awake.  However, this all changed when local chat host celebrity – Danny Stafford – took to the webcam.  Dressed in drag, sporting a glamorous blonde wig, CH DannyStafford made playing at Bingocams an absolute blast!  This highlights the particular importance of good chat hosts, made all the more important when you can see and hear them.

Playing at Bingocams

The bingo playing experience at Bingocams is like nothing you will have experienced before (unless you’re already a member at Bingocams!).  There are both good points and bad points to the unusual bingo platform.  Nothing is where you would expect it to be and it all feels a bit clunky.  For example, your balance is displayed in a tiny panel at the foot of the play window, which took us five minutes or more to actually locate.  However, once you get used to it, theproprietary bingo software used by Bingocams, the software becomes great fun and not too much hassle to use.  Every time that we visited Bingocams during the writing of our review, we found busy bingo rooms and decent jackpots but there were no really big guaranteed jackpots advertised on any of the schedules.

If Anyone Can, Bingocams Can!

If you’re bored of the ‘samey’ feel of the playing experience at most bingo sites and you want to try something completely different, we highly recommend that you pay a visit towww.bingocams.com.  We’re sure that this unique way to play online bingo won’t be everybody’s cup of tea but you can’t please everyone – we love it though!
