Sparkling Bingo Review
When you hear the name Sparkling Bingo it conjures up images of disco balls and diamonds but what you actually get when you visit the home page of this brand is a dancing bingo ball and a ballroom couple. Sparkling Bingo is part of the Dragonfish network so unless you are a complete novice to the world of bingo online, you will have seen what this brand has to offer at numerous other sites. Are the aesthetics of the home page enough to make this brand stand out from an over populated network? Not really.
Registration is standard to the network with the usual details required; name, address, email, chosen username and password. Once you have completed the registration you are taken to a screen where you have two options – "Play Now" or "Deposit Funds". To go straight to the lobby click the Play Now option.
The moment you enter the bingo lobby you’ll feel at home because the layout is exactly the same as with other Dragonfish networked brands. To the left of the screen you have a menu of tabs showing what is available and when we visited to complete the review we actually found a 5p game in play in the 90 ball tab, they do tend to be a bit of a rarity at these sites. However if you are looking to play 75 ball when we visited in the only open room had a price tag of £1 per ticket! In the rooms you’ll find the layout is standard with your bingo tickets in the centre of your screen, chat to the left with instant win games above the chat room and the ticket purchasing options to the right which become the bingo call board when you are in a game.
It’s really hard to get enthused about yet another Dragonfish networked brand and whilst Sparkling Bingo does the same as any other brand on the network, it has nothing unique to offer by way of promotions and sign up offers. We’ve been there and done that so many times now! Having said all that, if you’re looking for more of the same then you’ll find it at Sparkling Bingo.
Pros
Trusted software and network
Cons
The same as many other sites on the network, no unique promotions, misleading home page offer
