Here's How to Play

BLACKOUT BINGO is a two (2) part vertically oriented game. The first part is the CALLER'S CARD, which contains twenty-four (24) draw numbers, and six (6) Bonus Numbers covered by opaque scratch-off material. The second part consists of four Bingo Cards each containing twenty-four numbers plus a free space on a 5 X 5 grid covered by transparent scratch-off material. Players win by matching those same numbers on the four BINGO CARDS to the numbers on the CALLER'S CARD. If they match all the numbers on a diagonal, vertical or horizontal straight line, four corners of the grid, an X or blackout the card on any of the four (4) BINGO CARDS, they win the prize according to the prize legend for the respective card.
