Bingo Loft

The original version of Bingo Loft was actually called Big Brother Bingo and when the TV tie-in ended it was basically left in limbo for years.  Now it is back, under new ownership (Digital Rush Ltd) and with an attention-grabbing new design in shades of purple.

It’s not immediately obvious to the casual visitor what bingo rooms are available at Bingo Loft; they mention 75, 90 and 52 ball bingo in the FAQ but there are no bingo room tiles on the publicly accessible parts of the site, only slot game tiles.

So what lurks inside the lobby? Here’s the rundown of bingo rooms (correct at the time of writing):

• Top of the Shop – the main 90 ball room
• Easy Peasy – 75-25 (5 line) room
• Flip It – a 90 ball room, open in the evenings, where the biggest prize is given to 1L and the smallest to FH
• The YOYO – a 75-24 room where the prize amount jumps around during the game
• Bingo Deal – playing card based 52-5 bingo
• Mystery Jackpot – a 75-24 room where the prize can be anything from £10 to £500 and is revealed after ticket sales close
• Long Term Loyalty and Most Loyal – two loyalty based free bingo rooms running 75-24 games once a day
• Grab a Fiver – a free bingo room with a prize pool of £5 bingo bonus
• Free Spins Bingo – four bingo rooms where you can win free spins on different slot games.  They are 90 ball rooms with a ticket price of 3p and are exclusive to Bingo Loft, but only run one game a week between them.

The free rooms are very busy, the others less so; this means that the prizes are relatively modest but your chances of winning are much better than they would be in a super busy room.  Most Dragonfish bingo rooms no longer have any hosted chat.

What else can you do at Bingo Loft? Play slots!  If you’ve played at a Dragonfish site before, but not recently, you may find that the selection of slot games on offer is not what you expect.  This is because 888, the original owner of the Dragonfish product, sold it to Broadway Gaming at the end of 2021.  An immediate effect was that all of 888’s own slot games such as Millionaire Genie were removed.  Dragonfish have now also stopped working with well known game providers such as IGT and NetEnt but on the other hand, due to the long standing business relationship between Broadway Gaming and Microgaming, a large number of popular games from the Microgaming back catalogue have been added.  Eyecon slots have always been a feature of Dragonfish bingo sites and remain so; they supply all of the progressive jackpots at Bingo Loft including super and mega jackpot versions of all the Fluffy games.

In addition to the slots, Bingo Loft has a number of Slingo games, but you’ll need to use the search box to find them as they don’t have their own area in the lobby.

Most slot games at Bingo Loft can be played with bonus (not bingo bonus, but games bonus which is how whatever you win from the welcome offer spins will be paid) but there are a few which can’t; these are clearly marked Real Money Only in the lobby so there’s no need to check a list or anything like that.

Bingo Loft doesn’t appear to have much in the way of player promotions; there’s a My Offers area in the lobby but when we visited it only contained the welcome offer. A couple of other deposit offers (one involving a spin the wheel bonus game and one slot spins) were on the main part of the site and presumably would be shown to players once the welcome offer has been taken up.

One of the big plus points of the Dragonfish bingo and slots lobby is how easy it is to use on a mobile phone; a combination of tabs (but not too many) and horizontal scrolling help with navigation and the search box works for bingo room names as well as for slot games.  A deposit button is on screen all the time so you can top up while on the go without having to go back to the lobby. The bingo rooms look very much on a phone as they do on a larger screen apart from chat and mini games being in pop ups instead of on panes to the side of the play area.  The only caveat is that in some rooms the default ticket purchase is set quite high (e.g. 24 tickets) and if you want to buy fewer than that you have to remove them one at a time.

As the first new Dragonfish bingo site for a long time, Bingo Loft is certain to delight fans of this very popular bingo software – especially fans of the Fluffy slot games!
