Step-By-Step:
Start by getting the Hackathon PDF by clicking on the "Print" button above.
Open the PDF and print a hard copy.
For random drawing, you can print another copy of the call list, cut, fold and then pick them randomly at play time.
Cut the bingo cards at the cut lines if there are greater than 1 bingo cards per page.
Distribute one card per player. For marking, you can use pencils. Crayons are the cheapest.
Choose one person to be the caller. If you are playing in a small group, the caller may as well play along with their own Bingo card.
The caller initiates the play by randomly pulling an item from the call list and calling out it to all players.
The players look at their cards to see if they have the called word. If they do, they dab that word.
The first player to complete a horizontal, vertical, or a diagonal line of marked items yells "Bingo!" and wins the game.
The caller validates that the items crossed off form a correct line according to the Bingo card and call list.
You can play for different patterns or a full card blackout for a longer game.
