What is Slingo

Slingo was first created in 1994 as a fun alternative to slots and bingo. At a time when online gaming and gambling sites were just starting to appear, it was an invention that showed a lot of promise. Slingo was first created as a free game and designed to be a cross between slots and bingo but simple to play.

Over the years, the game developed a small following, but it wasn’t until 2015 that it started to become popular in the UK market. With both bingo and slots already being incredibly popular in the UK, it perhaps wasn’t surprising that Slingo took off so quickly.

Over time, Slingo became more common at online casinos available to players around the world. Slingo has slowly become one of the most popular casino games of many UK players, and there are lots of new versions that include exciting bonus features.

How to Play Slingo

Slingo is relatively simple to play. The game starts with a set number of spins, and players have to match the numbers on the reels with the numbers on the 5x5 grid. There are twenty-five numbers from one to seventy-five, and you create lines, also known as Slingos, to win. The more lines you create by matching numbers, the higher the payout you can win.

2 Lines can be horizontal, vertical and diagonal and completing the entire grid will give the biggest payout possible. This is dependent on your stake, just like in slots. Once the set number of spins is complete, you can choose to buy more spins, the price of which will depend on your stake and how close you are to completing the grid.

Some games of Slingo also include bonus features, which will help you win and provide more excitement as you spin the reels. These bonus features include wilds, super wilds, coins, free spins and blockers. Wilds will allow you to choose a space on the grid above the space on the reel, while super wilds let you choose a space anywhere.

Coins give an instant payout based on your stake, while free spins give you extra spins at the end of the round. Finally, blockers prevent you from getting a number, hindering your progress. These bonuses aren’t always available in every game, so always check the rules before you play.

Differences between Slingo, Slots and Bingo

Slingo is a game based on slots and bingo, and there are a lot of similarities between them. There are also lots of differences too. Here are some of the main features and how they differ:

• Bonuses – In both slots and Slingo, you can benefit from special bonus features. These include free spins and wilds. Bingo doesn’t usually offer the same kind of bonus features, but some games do have special wins or jackpots available. While slots require you to match bonus symbols, Slingo bonuses become active as soon as they appear on the reels.
• Symbols – In slots, symbols are usually a mix of playing card suits as well as special symbols such as gems or other items related to the game’s theme. Slingo only uses numbers instead of symbols, which are always between one and seventy-five. This is just like in 75-ball bingo, where each bingo ticket contains twenty-five numbers, and the caller will read out numbers at random within the same range.
• Paylines – In slots, wins are only paid out when you match symbols across one of the game’s paylines. This is different to Slingo, where you’ll need to match symbols to create lines across the grid. In bingo, you also need to create lines on your ticket to win, but you’ll only win if you’re the first player to do so.
• Prizes – Bingo, slots and Slingo all offer prizes to winners, but the way the prize is paid out differs. In slots and Slingo, your payout depends on the size of your stake. A bigger stake means bigger risk but bigger potential prizes. On the other hand, paying more in bingo means you’ll have more tickets and a higher chance of winning. However, the prizes remain the same.
