PartyBingo offers traditional 90 ball bingo and the 75 ball pattern game, and in both cases the visuals are very impressive. Bingo tickets are on the right of the display with the chat window in the centre and the numbers board above. Game and account details appear on the far left and at the very top of the display. It all looks very sleek and very organised, but we were surprised to find that we couldn’t find a way to enlarge the display window or play in full screen mode. For software that is downloaded we think this is something that should be addressed in a future update, but fortunately the game itself is more than good enough to offset this oversight.

The number of options that PartyBingo provides is impressive. Numbers are called by a regular male caller by default, but if you visit the Audio tab in the Preferences menu you will be able to select “fun” mode. When this is activated the caller, who is again male, sounds like one you might hear at a seaside resort or in an episode of the Phoenix Nights television series. Other options allow you to change your daubing style and colour, automatically sort your strips or cards and change the size of the font in the chat window.

Progressive jackpots are paid out to players who can make a full house (or a coverall, as appropriate) before a certain number of balls have been called. There are also plenty of non-bingo games here at PartyBingo, and many of these have substantial jackpots as well. An “Instant Bingo” game offers a game that appears to be a cross between regular bingo and keno, allowing players to enjoy playing bingo against the house as opposed to against other players. The prize paid out here depends entirely on how long it takes you to make the required pattern.

Overall, PartyBingo is an excellent site that is let down only by the lack of a full-screen display mode.
