Just by launching the Heart game lobby, I can already see I’m in for a treat. The lobby is divided up into various areas, including ‘Bingo’, ‘Slots’, ‘Live Casino’, ‘Slingo’ and ‘Promos’.
Of course, being a bingo site review, the first thing I did was to head to the ‘Bingo’ area. Here, you can search by category, or if you know the name of the game you want to play, via the search bar.
There are at least 10 90-ball bingo games to choose from at any given time, with most of them starting within 10 minutes. There's also a great selection of 75/80-ball bingo games that includes The Jukebox and fan favourite Deal or No Deal. In the ‘Specials’ section, you'll also find some other well-known bingo titles, as well as Heart’s exclusive Monthly Mix, Daily Delight and Weekly Wonder.
Interestingly, you could also get involved in ‘Pre-buys’. These are games that are scheduled quite far in advance, but you can grab your tickets early.
Lurking at the end of the ‘Bingo’ area is also a nice selection of video bingo if you like to switch things up a bit. Popular titles here include Thunderstruck II, Immortal Romance and Amazing Pharaoh.
Overall, I was pretty impressed with the selection of bingo games on offer, and there’s a nice mix of classic titles and more modern releases.
Slots and other casino games
It's become commonplace now for bingo sites to offer slots and other popular casino games as well as bingo, and Heart is no exception.
In the ‘Slots’ area, the team at heart have done a good job of categorising the impressive slot collection into areas such as ‘Top Slots’, ‘Best of the Year’, ‘Daily Jackpots’ and ‘Megaways’.
There are hundreds of titles to choose from, brought to you by big-name game developers such as Pragmatic Play, Blueprint Gaming and Eyecon. One thing I really like about the Heart website is that you can click on a slot and it will give you some basic information about the game, including how it works, what symbols and special features are available and the max payout. This isn't true of every single release in the slots catalogue, but certainly most slots at Heart come with a bit of a blurb.
This is by no means the biggest slot collection I've ever seen, but I have to remind myself that this is a bingo site, not a slots casino! The most popular genres are well catered for, so you'll find plenty of Norse and Greek mythology games, as well as lucky Irish, fishing and gem-inspired releases. You'll also find some hugely popular games like Madame Destiny Megaways, Fluffy Favourites, Rainbow Riches and Fishin’ Frenzy.
Over in the ‘Live Casino’ section, there's a great variety of classic casino games to take a seat at, such as blackjack, roulette and baccarat, as well as the latest craze of game show-inspired releases such as Crazy Time, Monopoly Big Baller and Cash or Crash Live.
I was also delighted to see that Heart has jumped on the latest trend of live slots, with a couple of titles making the cut, including Treasure Island, which combines the fun of spinning the reels with the live element of a game show host.
Finally, we reach the ‘Slingo’ portion of the game lobby. Slingo is an incredibly popular hybrid game that combines slots and bingo together, and here you'll find a lot of classic games such as Slingo Starburst, Slingo Hearttreme and Slingo Deadliest Catch
