Heyaaaa Minecraft friends,

get your dusty Minecraft manual out of the closet and bring your rusty knowledge up to date!
Today we are proud to introduce our brand new and absolutely unique game mode BINGO.

Bingo joins our expanding lineup of non-PvP-oriented games as another mode offering 1.19 players a distinctive and unprecedented gaming experience.



» But what exactly is bingo all about?

The general gameplay of bingo is easy to understand. There are tickets, numbers that are drawn one after the other, and at the end, there is a lucky winner who has combined five numbers in a row to a "Bingo". Very similar works our modification - just with a little more fun and excitement 😉

In our version of bingo, there is also a 5x5 fields card. However, all fields of the bingo card are not filled with numbers, but with various items that you can produce, find or collect in Vanilla Minecraft. The goal is also to achieve a so-called "bingo". This means that you have to collect the items of at least one horizontal, one vertical, or one diagonal row on your bingo card. The player who can get the required items first wins the round.

On the way, you are in survival mode in a huge world, which is generated varied with many small biomes. This, and of course your extensive knowledge of Minecraft, will help you to quickly obtain the required items and thus decide the round in your favor.

"May the cleverest Minecrafter win!"


» What is the bingo card all about?

At the beginning of the game, all players in the game receive (in addition to some starting equipment) a uniform bingo card in their inventory. As already mentioned, the card contains all items that can be collected for a "Bingo" in the respective game. Graphically, the items are represented with small pixel art. If a team has collected an item, it is automatically marked on the bingo card for all players in the game.

In addition to the map in your hand, which tends to provide a quick overview throughout the round, you can get a more detailed overview of the bingo map by using the command "/bingo". Entering the command opens an inventory, in which the bingo map is once again physically displayed with items. The inventory helps you especially when you are stuck. If you're not familiar with the contents of the latest versions, you can click on the items to see the crafting recipe that will give you the item.


» What makes this mode so special?

Besides the bingo card and the small biomes, there is another important component that makes Bingo special: Perks.

Perks are designed to help you with special effects to obtain certain items on the bingo card. A perk can be activated in the waiting lobby as well as in-game at any time by using the command "/perks". When a perk is redeemed, all players in that round (even those who did not redeem the perk) receive a strengthening effect. This lasts for the entire round and can have very different effects. In total, there are 9 different perks available to you at the time of the game mode's release.

Since each perk can only be used once and is consumed immediately after activation, there are of course many ways to get perks. Besides the boxes in the coin system, you'll get the perks mainly by winning a round and by completing achievements. At release, 21 achievements are already waiting for you, which you can unlock quickly with a bit of perseverance and ingenuity.

Perks are also available in our Gold Shop, which you can visit as usual via the NPC at the main lobby spawn. In addition, you can now buy the game mode related offers directly in the waiting lobby of the respective game. For a little gold, you can get bundles of 5, 15, and 25 random perks.

To make your entry into the game a bit easier, you will receive a free perk in the main lobby as a gift when you enter the network between 12/22/2022 and 01/05/2023.


 

Last but not least, we would like to thank our OG content Laubfrosch7from the bottom of our hearts, who once again outdid himself in the recreation of this highly original mode and, as always, took impeccable care of the clean running of this revolutionary project. We also pay our deepest respect to Summerfeeling, who took care of the implementation of this monumental concept with admirable commitment and noticeable endless passion.

Furthermore, we would also like to thank our QA content UselessGeld, who has tirelessly taken care of the high-quality examination of the functionalities down to the smallest detail. Without him, the mode would not have become what it is today. We would also like to thank multiduude and Stragee, who, as the creators of the epic designs, have flowered like two beautiful flowers.



We hope that you will like our new game mode and that it will mark a new era on GommeHD.net!
