As should be the case for all online bingo platforms, Botemania have made a real effort in creating a strong sense of community between players and website alike. The left hand side of the screen sees a list of links that players can use on site to help them to navigate themselves around the colourful and informative platform. One of them translates as the ‘community’ section of the page and members who click this will be able to view the latest adverts that the Botemania bingo platform have commissioned and aired on Spanish media outlets.
In addition to this, it shows a selection of Botemania players taking a penalty at La Liga team Espanyol’s stadium during a half-time break. Each of them scored and ended up winning a healthy €1,000! This shows the unique way that the Botemania Bingo platform goes about creating a sense of community between themselves and its players. There’s no doubt that winning €1,000 for scoring a penalty would go a long way to helping this good relationship…
The Lure of the Games
However, as a strong a community feel to the site there is, there’s no question that the main thing that would attract players to a site is its games selection. Unfortunately, that is very small and pretty poor on the Botemania Bingo platform. At the bottom of the website is a list of the bingo rooms that players can access on the Botemania Bingo platform, with their only being four listed. These are titled RapiBingo, Super Bingo, Bingote and Bono Bingo.
Should players wish to learn a bit more about these rooms then they can do so by simply clicking the link. It will explain how many balls are in there, whether there is a progressive jackpot to win and what the price is per ticket. It’s a fantastic way of explaining to those new to the site why they might enjoy these rooms, or not. As already stated, having just the four bingo rooms on a website that is supposed to be aimed at bingo players is extremely disappointing, but that’s something Botemania Bingo members will have to deal with.
Six of the Best
On the home page are six images of the most popular games on the site at that moment in time. Five of these six games are either slots or casino titles and goes to show the popularity for these games – over the traditional bingo versions. These five games are La Isla De Tiki, Spanish Roulette, Secrets of the Phoenix, Multi-hand Blackjack and Raging Rhino. As is the case with bingo, the website does make a good effort in describing what features there are in these games and how that makes them stand out from the crowd. It’s a good way to learn about the slots, but players are more likely to take advantage of the demo option first. Certainly that is a far more enjoyable and fun way of learning about the slot games. Overall though, the overriding feeling is one of disappointment when comparing the Botemania Bingo portfolio to its rivals.
An OK Welcome
The welcome bonus is an okay package in comparison to other sites. There’s no free money just for registering but there is a €20 bonus that accompanies those who stake €10 as their first deposit on site. As stated, that’s nothing to call home about when there are a lot better welcome packages available on other platforms, however, at least it is something.
