Here’s a bit more about the Slingo Games catalogue.
Hybrid of Bingo and Slots
Slingo has a unique appeal as it mixes elements of online slots and bingo. Each version may have slightly bonus features, but the format remains the same. A 5×5 bingo card sits center stage with 25 numbers on it. Underneath, a 5×1 reel spins to reveal random numbers which are crossed off the card where they match. When a horizontal, vertical or diagonal line is crossed off, that is a Slingo, and a prize. The more Slingos you score, the higher your prize.
Skill and Player Interaction
Unlike traditional slots, Slingo games include element of skill and player interaction. At various points in the game players may be asked whether they want to cash in what they have won or pay for more spins in the hope of completing their Slingo card and winning higher prizes. These unique decision-making moments are part of what make Slingo so exciting.
Branded Games
In the early days games like Slingo Riches and Slingo Xxxtreme were all variations on the Slingo brand and format. More recently, with games like Slingo Lobstermania and Slingo the company has pursued branded deals that hitch iconic slots brands onto the Slingo engine. This strategy has successfully raised the profile of Slingo in UK slot sites and casinos.
Fast-Growing Game Catalogue
The number of Slingo games is growing at a fast pace. A few years ago there were around 20 games bearing the titles. Now log onto a popular Slingo site like Play OJO for example and you’ll find upwards of 70 games to try. And Slingo Originals shows no sign of slowing down as they seek to achieve their stated aim of further innovations and entry into more regulated markets.
Award Winners
Real money Slingo games are a genuinely exciting innovation in the online casino sector and Gaming Realms have won awards for their work including best new slot game for Slingo Rainbow Riches at the Which Bingo awards in 2018, and Mobile Supplier of the Year in 2022 at the EGR B2B Awards.
