Sun Bingo swaps to new platform and announces big prize draw
After the long wait and much speculation by the online gaming community, Sun Bingo has finally made the switch from the Tambola Bingo software to the Gamesys platform that is currently running the very popular Jackpot Joy site.
Although many have wondered if this move would prove to be a successful one for the already popular online bingo operator, or whether it would drive away long-term fans, one thing that is clear is that under the Gamesys platform Sun Bingo will be able to offer its members a far greater range of games than it could with the Tambola Bingo platform.
For example, Sun Bingo will now have the opportunity to host side games in addition to the main bingo game, allowing players to take part in slots and other activities while playing Bingo. It will also provide more choice in what games Sun Bingo offers. Many bingo operators are moving away from the bingo only model, having realised that there is potential for expanding their operation to cover other games too, and like Sun Bingo they are making a move to a more versatile gaming provider like Gamesys to give players more choice in their online gambling adventures.
However, Sun Bingo has built a dedicated following thanks to its vibrant and friendly community, providing a vast number of chat rooms as well as very cheap games at all times of the day and night. Many industry pundits and bingo fans are uncertain if the Gamesys software is capable of providing the same kind of community atmosphere, and are wondering whether the new and improved Sun Bingo will be able to bring in the sort of numbers the online bingo provider saw with the Tambola platform.
The good news is that existing Sun Bingo players don't have to do anything different. If you're already registered at the Sun Bingo site you'll be able to login and play with the same details you originally registered, so Sun shouldn't lose too many loyal bingo fanatics.
And to encourage new and existing members to take part, Sun Bingo has announced a special promotion running from now until September 30th. Anyone playing an online bingo or instant win game is automatically registered in a prize draw to win an amazing £250,000 prize. The lucky winner of this draw will be able to purchase a house anywhere in the UK up to £250,000 in value! Head over to Sun Bingo now to find out more about the great new games and be in with a chance at winning this fabulous prize.
