Play Heidi's Tavern for Free

The betting is fully adjustable by clicking the plus or minus with the amount shown in the meter window at bottom left. For any newbies trying bingo for the first time, all you need to remember is whatever is staked, is split between the numbers of cards in play. What's nice about this game is the atmosphere given to it by the use of a theme. Heidi’s tavern is brightly decorated and very inviting with the wooden tables, barrels and steins of beer on show. The ball drop is in the centre with the bingo cards either side.

Just like slots have win lines, online bingo has pattern formations and these are shown at the top of the screen with the prize value next to each of the 12 patterns. This amount correlates to the bet staked, so as the bets are adjusted, the values will too. Each card has 3 rows of 5 numbers and as the 30 balls drop, the numbers on the cards that match are crossed off. Any numbers forming a win are shown in blue and if there are any wins that are close to forming, there are up to 10 extra balls that can be purchased in the hope of making a further winning pattern.

The atmosphere is great at Heidi’s Tavern, especially when the extra balls are open to play and 10 steins of beer are lined up on the bar. Each pot represents a ball and comes with a price which is shown at the top near the ball release window. In true tavern tradition, drinking the stein will delight the crowd as they clap and urge the player on with cheers, and it will also reveal the ball.

Free balls can be earned and occasionally a wild ball will appear to be used by simply clicking a number waiting to be matched on the card. Besides credit to be won, there is also a very impressive high paying bonus game with staggering prizes to play for, which can be triggered by two designated win pattern formations. On the bar 4 beer pumps will be seen, each having its own beer icon, and an empty glass below. Players spin the wheel to pick the icons, this will then activate the pump and fill the stein glass to win the prize.
