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 welcome offer (recently upgraded from 120 free tickets to a generous bingo bonus) 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 it’s easy enough to find the ones where you can use your bonus – they’re in the Buy In Bonus area of the bingo lobby. Keeping the rest of the rooms for cash play ultimately benefits players as 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 being those that run £1000 bingo games every Friday for specially invited players). As a result of the welcome offer at Dino Bingo and other sites changing from free bingo tickets to the much more popular bingo bonus, some of the other exclusive rooms have been removed as they were no longer needed.

A solid collection of slot games awaits players looking to pass the time between bingo sessions. Again, many of them 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 many classics and several progressive jackpots like Shaman’s Dream and Millionaire Genie.

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