Play Bingo on Zoom with your friends or family members online to help pass the boredom and isolation that comes with lockdown and staying at home.

The Bingo Card Creator creates a custom set of sight words bingo cards. You can use one (or more) of the existing lists of sight words and/or use your own custom word list. To create your Bingo Cards: Under Number of Bingo Cards, use the dropdown box to select the number (1 – 30) of Bingo Cards you wish to create. You will need one card for. As we “Zoom” into 2021, it’s time to look back on the year that was 2020. Actually, scratch that. It’s time to say “good riddance” to this unmitigated disaster of a year and to recap our shared experiences. (And yes, by “experiences,” we mean trauma.) These 2020 Instagram bingo cards should do the trick!

Thanks to the continuation of lockdown and its desired end not being in sight, video apps such as Zoom and Houseparty remain massively popular with people using them to stay in contact with loved ones and mates online while staying at home. While some of these apps include games, Zoom doesn’t but you can still participate in activities such as Bingo with friends by being a bit creative.

There are plenty of games you can play while on Zoom, Houseparty or other video apps such as Heads Up, Pictionary, and – the best at guaranteeing guilty laughs – Cards Against Humanity. However, for elders or those who wish to continue acting as if they’re in a retirement home, Bingo is another of these good games.

Granted, it’s not the most thrilling, but if you wish to play something with friends that isn’t massively taxing then it’s surely for you.

How to play Bingo remotely with friends on Zoom

You can play Bingo remotely with friends on Zoom by scheduling a meeting.

Once the Zoom meeting time and date is scheduled, share the unique ID with your friends to play Bingo with them during that specified period.

Zoom Meeting Bingo

If you’re not the one who is hosting the session, all you need to do is join the meeting by entering the unique ID.

Provided you have the video app downloaded and have the session set up for a later date, you can then begin creating your own Bingo cards.

It’s entirely up to you how you play and how many people participate, but the Independent has shared the idea of making it a movie night in which you all watch the same film simultaneously.

Instead of numbers, your created Bingo cards would have phrases and words most likely to appear, and you all mark them as they occur until a winner is eventually dubbed.

Remember that there are plenty of other games you can play on Zoom and other video apps to stay in contact with people remotely, but Bingo is a good and relaxing get-together for when you want a calm activity as opposed to a frantic one.

You can also make the session more exciting by creating a reward for the winner and/or punishments for the loser(s). But it’s up to you to be safe, responsible, and not stupid when it comes to any hypothetical rewards and consequences.

If you're looking for fun games to play with your friends remotely, there are plenty of ways to approach it. Although it may be difficult to plan a game night if you can't all be in the same spot at once, you can try a virtual game night using a video conferencing platform, such as Zoom. Here are 6 games you can play on Zoom for long-distance fun.

Playing games together from afar isn't as hard as it sounds. To plan a game night, make sure everyone has a reliable internet connection and a video-conferencing service like Zoom or Google Hangouts. Next, make sure you know the requirements of the game or platform. For some games, you'll want to start the game on your laptop and share your screen. For instance, to play Jackbox Games on Zoom, you'll have to have one person start the game, share their screen, and play that way.

Gameplay software and consoles are a great way to start playing games remotely over Zoom. Steam is a particularly good choice for remote play using its Steam Remote Play feature. If you use Steam Remote Play, only one person has to own a game copy in order to start, but you'll all need to make free accounts to play together. While Steam takes care of the game screen sharing, keeping Zoom open offers an easier way to socialize while you're playing.

There are several games that are easy to start playing with your friends on Zoom.

2. Pictionary With Zoom's Whiteboard Feature

Zoom has a whiteboard sharing feature that is just perfect for playing Pictionary with your friends. You can play with the actual game or make up your own prompts. To use it, you'll need to make sure you have at least a 3.5.1 or higher of the Zoom desktop client for PC or 3.5.2 for Mac. If you are using your iPad, you'll need a 2.5.3 or higher.

You should then see annotation tools that will let you use your mouse to draw as you would for Pictionary. You can take turns sharing the screen's whiteboard depending on who's turn it is, and you can put some in charge of keeping time for the person who is drawing.

3. Jackbox Games' Fibbage XL

Fibbage XL on Jackbox Games is a fun game to play with as many as eight players. The game involves bluffing and fooling your friends while you all try to figure out the correct answer to a question out of a pack of lies.

Jackbox has a Steam code offer for this game right now at half the usual price.

4. Charades

One of the great things about playing charades is that you barely need any materials to get a game going, and you can play with as many people as you want. Just gather your friends together over Zoom, choose your teams, and consult with each other in individual chats to get the rounds going.

5. Zoom Bingo

Playing bingo over Zoom is an easy way to hold a game night. Have each of your friends print out the same style of bingo cards (make sure they aren't identical), and have one of you as a designated caller. One way to approach this is to write out the numbers on cards, shuffle them, and pull them one at a time.

There are also online bingo options that allow for multiplayers to join, such as Facebook Instant Games' bingo option in Messenger or GamePoint Bingo from Youda Games.

6. Personalized Trivia Game

A fun, interactive idea is to use an application such as TriviaMaker.com to create your own trivia games. Anyone can create their own game once they have a TriviaMaker account, and once you've created a game you can share it and play with your friends while video chatting on Zoom. The best way to do this is to make the file downloadable, share screens, or use the Web presenter link for friends playing together.

If you want to play a trivia game that doesn't require as much work, there are fun options like this Sporcle Trivia Bingo room. You can start a personal room and share your personalized link with friends to play together. Or, one person can share their screen to have everyone guess together. You can also find fun trivia games on Facebook and Snapchat which you can play with Zoom if you share your screen.
