Create a Game in Minutes
MyEventBingo's Easy Mode is the fastest way to build a live bingo game and get everyone playing. In a few taps you pick a theme, add your calls, set a start time, and share one link. There is no app to install, no cards to print, and no caller needed. This guide walks through each step of the Easy setup flow. If you want more control later, Advanced View adds extra options, but you never need it to run a great game. For how the live game plays once people join, see How to Play Bingo Online.
Step 1: Create Game Details
Pick an avatar, give your game a name, and add an optional description. These details help players recognize your game when they join.
Step 2: Select or Customize Your Call List
Choose from the library or build your own list of squares. Game play requires at least 25 calls. You can mix built in calls with your own to match any event.
Pick a Built In Game
Open the Pick From Game Library menu and select a ready made game like Car Ride, Office Meeting, or Soccer. The calls load instantly, and you can still edit them before moving on.
Customizing the calls
Use the big blue button to make your own custom game. Enter any text you want for your calls so the board fits your theme perfectly.
List the Calls
After you press the big blue button, the call list displays. It will show the built in game you selected, or it will allow you to enter your own calls from scratch.
Add calls
Use the add button to enter one or many calls at once. You can separate calls by a comma, a new line, or semicolons, then confirm to append them to your call list.
Edit a call
Use the pencil icon to rename or refine a call so it matches your audience or event theme.
Delete a call
Use the X icon to remove a call you do not need. The search bar helps you find items quickly when your list is long.
Step 3: Set the Date, Time, and Duration
Pick when your game will start and how long it will run. You can start right away or schedule it for later.
Step 4: Choose Your Game Options
- Bingos until game over: set how many winners before the game ends.
- Make private: keep the game out of search so only people with your link or QR code can join.
- Free center square: turn on a free space and set the text.
- Bingo text: customize the five letter word at the top of the boards.
Step 5: Share Your Game
You are all set. Tap Share to copy the link or QR code and invite players. This is the easy way to create a game. Advanced View offers more controls, but you do not need it to start playing.
