The Rocket Feature in Bingo Bash: A Strategic Guide
Have you ever finished a round just one or two numbers away from a Bingo? The Rocket feature is a powerful tool designed to solve that exact problem. It gives you a second chance to win after the regular round has ended, making it one of the most exciting features in the game.
This guide explains everything you need to know about Rockets: how they work, when you can use them, the rules for different game modes, and the new "Incremental Rocket" system.
What Exactly is the Rocket Feature?
Rockets are a special consumable item that you can use at the end of a bingo round. When activated, the Rocket feature provides 2 extra, random daubs per card. The goal is to hit the last few numbers you need to complete a winning pattern.
Crucially, Bingos achieved using Rockets are additional Bingos. They do not count towards the regular number of Bingos allotted for that round. This means you are essentially getting a bonus opportunity to win that other players may not have.
Important Note: Daubs, Not Bingos
A common misconception is that Rockets guarantee a Bingo. This is not true. Rockets only guarantee extra daubs on your cards. If those random daubs happen to complete a winning pattern, you get a Bingo. If not, you still get the daubs, but no win.
How the Rocket Feature Works: Step-by-Step
- End of the Round: The Rocket feature only becomes available after the main round is over. This happens either when all regular numbers have been called or when all allotted Bingos for the round have been won by other players.
- Activate Rockets: If you are close to a Bingo, the game will prompt you to use your Rockets. Activating them will consume a certain number from your inventory.
- Incremental Rocket Use: The game now allows for an "incremental" use of Rockets. This means you can use the feature twice in a single round. After the first use, you will be given the option to use it a second time for an additional cost, giving you even more chances to win.
Rocket Costs and Limitations
The number of Rockets you can use (your "Rocket balance") and the cost per use depend on the type of cards you are playing. Higher-value rooms with better prizes have higher Rocket costs. Your total Rocket balance can be seen on the main Lobby screen.
The cost structure is tiered as follows:
- Regular Cards: 30 Rockets
- Special Cards: 60 Rockets
- Premium Cards: 90 Rockets
- Legendary Cards: 150 Rockets
- Epic Cards: 300 Rockets
This means if you are playing in a "Legendary" room, your first Rocket use will cost 150 Rockets from your balance. The second incremental use will cost an additional 150 Rockets.
How Can I Get More Rockets?
You can stock up on Rockets in several ways:
- As rewards from in-game activities and events.
- Through daily Bingo Bash freebie links, which sometimes contain Rockets.
- By purchasing them in the game's store with real money.
The Rocket feature is a game-changer when used wisely. Now that you understand how to get extra wins, let's explore another key part of the game: finishing sets for huge prizes. Continue to our next guide: What Are Collections?
