FAQ: What Are Guest Players in Bingo Bash?
When you first launch Bingo Bash, you are presented with login options. One of these is to "Play as Guest" or choose the "Later" option. Players who choose this are known as Guest Players. They are playing the game anonymously, without linking their game profile to a social media account like Facebook.
While this is a quick way to jump into the action, playing as a Guest comes with significant limitations and risks that every player should be aware of.
Can Guest Players Participate in Gameplay?
Yes, absolutely. A Guest Player can fully participate in the core gameplay of Bingo Bash. You can play in bingo rooms, earn rewards like chips and coins, and progress through levels just like any other player. However, the experience is incomplete due to the features you cannot access.
The Limitations: What Guest Players Miss Out On
The primary distinction is that Guest Players cannot access any of the game's social features. This means you are missing out on some of the most rewarding and fun aspects of the game, including:
- Sending or Receiving Gifts: Guest Players cannot use the daily gifting feature, which is a major source of free chips and Power-Plays. This is explained in our Guide to Gifting.
- Profile Customization: You cannot change your profile picture or name. You will be assigned a generic guest avatar and name.
- Facebook Contests: You cannot participate in the exclusive contests and giveaways hosted on the official Bingo Bash Facebook page.
- Adding Friends: You will not have a friends list inside the game, meaning you can't track their progress or engage with them.
The Biggest Risk: Losing Your Progress
The most critical limitation of playing as a Guest is that your game progress is only saved locally on your device. If you get a new phone, lose your device, or need to delete and reinstall the app, all of your progress—including your level, chips, and collections—will be permanently lost.
