Housey Bingo
What Is Housey Bingo?
Housey is a 52-ball bingo game that uses playing cards instead of numbers. It’s essentially Playtech’s answer to the super-popular tombola classic, CINCO, but unfortunately, it does not come anywhere close in terms of game experience.
I’ll explain why I feel this way in a future update, but for now, here’s how the game works.
How To Play
Each bingo ticket is a set of 5 randomly selected playing cards. The cards will appear face down until you’ve bought them, at which they’ll reveal their values, e.g. King of Spades, 4 of diamonds, etc.
When the game begins, cards are called and if they match any of your cards a casino chip will be placed on the card to indicate that it has been marked. The game is played for a full house only, which is the first player to get all 5 cards in a row.

Ticket Prices
Housey is a multi-price bingo game, which means you can choose what price to pay for your tickets and the prize money will change accordingly. When I last played the game you could choose from 5p, 10p, 20p, 30p and 40p tickets, with a maximum of 5 tickets. This means the most I could spend was £2 – co-incidentally the same as on tombola CINCO.
Prizes
Housey is played for a single full house prize, but there is also a progressive jackpot for claiming bingo within 6 calls. This is seeded at £500 and pays out 50% to the full house winner and 50% to the community if it is triggered. 2% of all stakes go into this progressive on every game.
