Blockbusters Bingo set to launch at Mecca Bingo

Mecca Bingo has always been a site that knows how to corner the market in bringing TV themed bingo games and slots online. This began some time ago with the X Factor Slot, and developed further when Deal or No Deal Bingo was introduced. Other sites have attempted to compete, with the likes of Who Wants to be a Millionaire Bingo, but Mecca Bingo kept coming back with new titles, one of the most recent being Britain’s Got Talent Bingo.
Mecca Bingo has recently secured the rights to use the Blockbusters quiz format and, through its association with Virtue Fusion, owned by Playtech Ltd, this online bingo site is nearly ready to launch its bingo version of the game. Angus Nisbet, Head of Gaming at the Mecca Bingo parent company Rank Interactive, has commented, “Branded online bingo games are among the most popular on MeccaBingo.com and I am sure that Blockbusters Bingo will be another success.”
With regard to the format of the game, signature elements and music from the programme will be included and the normal bingo numbers will be replaced by letters, appearing on twenty trademark yellow hexagons per bingo tickets. Nisbet went on to praise the layout, saying “Playtech’s Virtue Fusion has created a fantastic product and I am positive it will strike a chord with fans of the show and be well-liked by new players too.”
As well as the standard bingo prizes, the Blockbusters game will feature a special “1TG” game, the Gold Run, for all players left with only one letter to go when the final prize whether vertical or horizontal is won. There will also be a Community Blockbusters Jackpot that can be won if the first five letters called are B, I, N, G and O in any order.
Although the actual launch date has not yet been announced, keep checking back for news on when this brand new game will be available for play.
