Bingo Gust
Bingo Gust allows you to run interactive Bingo sessions where participants join from their own device and receive a unique Bingo card.
Bingo Gust supports two modes:
Event Mode
Classic Mode
Event Mode uses custom prompts designed for engagement, team-building, and interactive participation.
Classic Mode uses traditional numbered Bingo with number drawing and tracking.
Participants interact in real time as the session progresses.
How Bingo Gust Works
Bingo Gust sessions include three primary components.
Host Control Panel
You create the session, start the game, call prompts or numbers, and verify winners.
Participant View
Participants join using a 6-digit room code and receive a unique Bingo card.
Presentation View
Displays prompts, called items, and participant progress.
Each participant receives a randomized Bingo card to ensure fairness.
Event Mode
Event Mode uses custom prompts instead of numbers. Participants mark squares as prompts are completed or observed.
This mode is designed for team-building, scavenger hunts, icebreakers, and engagement activities.
Each participant receives a unique 5×5 Bingo card with a free center space.
Event Mode includes two gameplay styles.
Event Mode: Passive (Self Discovery)
In Passive mode, participants mark squares independently as they observe or complete prompts.
The host does not call prompts.
Participants review their Bingo card and mark items as they spot or complete them.
This mode is commonly used for:
Scavenger hunts
Networking events
Observation-based activities
Self-guided engagement
Participants claim Bingo when they complete a winning pattern. The host verifies the card before confirming the winner.
Event Mode: Active (Host-Called)
In Active mode, the host calls prompts during the session.
Participants mark squares only when the host calls a matching prompt.
This mode provides a structured, host-led experience similar to traditional Bingo.
This mode is commonly used for:
Live workshops
Training sessions
Facilitated team-building
Hosted group events
The host controls the pace of gameplay.
Participants claim Bingo when they complete a winning pattern. The host verifies the card before confirming the winner.
