High Roller Rooms can be found throughout specific Tours and will be the hardest game but with the biggest payouts. You can recognize them as they will have a Gold Postcard which will say “High Roller”.

There are many ways to use Coins throughout the game. You can use them to play Slots, purchase the Auto-Daub, Customize your Dauber, and much more. Coins can also be used to purchase more Power-ups and in some special Rooms such as Golden Adventures which uses Coins to play rather than Bingo Credits.

Rooms will continue to stay locked until you play more and Level up through the game. Some Rooms may also be locked if they are unavailable or under construction.

The Chests will be seen on the Cards and you are most likely to get a Chest if you play with 4 or more cards. When calling Bingo on a card that contains a Chest, you will win Prizes and even Spookies which can be found in the Legendary or Epic Chests. 

You can receive exclusive Spookies in Legendary or Epic chests.

Bingo Drive has a wide variety of Rooms to choose from and can have different patterns or Mini Games within the Bingo. The Seasonal rooms such as O’Peli’s Pub where you have to fill the Bar in order to enter the “Lucky Forest” or Skate Date where you have to collect Bows and Arrows. 

Some Rooms limit which Power-ups you can use. For example, the Seasonal Rooms such as Skate Date will limit Power-ups such as the Shuffler. Bingo Drive will tell you to “Buy More” Power-ups if you don’t have enough Power-ups to play a specific room, you have run out of Power-ups or due to connectivity issues. You can check how many Power-ups you have by going to your Currency Wallet.

 

Bingo Drive offers special Rounds where if you play, you will get a Double Payout. This means that when playing this Round, it will double the amount of Bingo Credits and Coins earned.

The Lightning Bolt is a Unique Power-up. Your Power-up Bar will take 2 Daubs to Charge and will cool down twice as fast giving you a better chance of calling Bingo.
