Stream bingo

Short answer:StreamNeeds stream bingo gives every viewer their own shuffled bingo card of things that might happen on stream. Viewers join with !bingo join, the streamer marks squares as they happen, and lines and full cards trigger alerts, with an overlay widget, a public card page and points bets.

What it does

Bingo works because everyone is watching for the same moments. You fill a card with things that might happen on your stream: a death, a rage quit, a 100x win, someone saying your catchphrase. Viewers type !bingo join and get their own shuffled card, so no two are the same.

When something on the card happens, you or a mod mark it, from the dashboard or a Stream Pad key, and every viewer's card updates. Lines and full cards play alerts and post in chat, and viewers can bet points on getting there.

What you get

  • Your own cards of stream moments
  • A shuffled card for every viewer with !bingo join
  • Mark squares from the dashboard, the mod page or Stream Pad keys
  • Line and full-card alerts and chat posts
  • A public card page viewers can open
  • A bingo overlay widget and points bets

How it helps every kind of streamer

Small streamer: more engagement

Bingo gets lurkers to join in, because joining is one command and then they're invested in every moment of your stream.

I want to grow

Viewers who hold a card stay longer to finish it, and longer watch time helps you rank higher on browse pages.

I want to make more money

Points bets on bingo give points real value, which makes earning points by subbing and gifting worth more.

Big streamer: run it at scale

Hundreds of cards update at once, mods mark squares for you, and the overlay shows who is closest so the whole chat watches together.

How to set it up

  1. Create a bingo card with the moments you expect.

  2. Start a game and tell viewers to type !bingo join.

  3. Mark squares as they happen and add the bingo widget to your overlay.
