Dino Bingo Review

Dino Bingo is part of the Costa Bingo stable of bingo sites and has a prehistoric theme, without any actual pictures of dinosaurs. It has the same free bingo tickets sign-up offer and bingo rooms as other sites in this group. Dino used to run exclusive promotions but that was years ago.

Why no dinosaurs? Well, Dino did have pictures of dinosaurs once – was absolutely plastered in them in fact – but it can’t be denied that cartoon dinosaurs have special appeal to children, so they all had to go. And with them went much of the character of the site; it’s basically just a skin now.

It’s not all bad news though. Dino Bingo, along with all the other sites in the same group, was taken over by 888 (owners of the Dragonfish software) a couple of years ago now and this has resulted in a bigger and better selection of bingo rooms, networked with Wink Bingo and other 888 house owned sites. Most of these bingo rooms are cash only but this doesn’t matter to Dino players as any winnings from the welcome offer bingo tickets are paid in cash. In a cash only bingo room, moreover, you don’t get the prize pool diluted by other people playing with bonus.

75-ball, 90-ball, 5-line and 52-5 bingo games are the available bingo variants and there’s also various fixed jackpot games, some networked across a very large number of Dragonfish sites and others exclusive to the Costa group (the best of these is a room that runs 5 free big money bingo games on Friday evenings just for players who deposited that week). Also exclusive to the Costa group are the bingo rooms where the welcome offer tickets can be used to play for modest cash prizes; they run games regularly all day so the number of players stays relatively low ensuring you’re in with a chance of actually winning something – unlike those kinds of free ticket offer where you’re playing against thousands of others.

A solid collection of slot games awaits players looking to pass the time between bingo sessions. Again, many of them including classic titles like Cleopatra, Starburst and Immortal Romance are cash only – something to be aware of if you are thinking of redeeming loyalty points for a slot bonus. There are still plenty of games that can be played with bonus though, including some progressive jackpots like Shaman’s Dream and Millionaire Genie.

Also exclusive to the Costa group is the Bingo Academy newbie room which offers free 90 ball bingo for small cash prizes, albeit only for the first 24 hours..

All in all, not bad for a somewhat neglected looking skin.
