Review
Play a friendly game of British-style bingo with some old folk. Written in Javascript. A British bingo board has 3 rows, 9 columns and 15 numbers. The game simulates the other players. Players make mistakes. They forget to mark numbers and mark the wrong numbers. Players chat. For example, saying they only have a few numbers left, or telling you when you have forgotten to mark a square. Players leave, join and re-join between and during games. You can cheat and get the game to correctly mark your board. You don't have to call 'line' or 'house' before the next number is called. There is no limit on the number of players (try a thousand). You can adjust the speed of the game and most sizes. You can choose to see the boards of the other players at your table or all the players' boards. The game can play for you. The game is Free Software and has a GPL v2 license. There are no charges. The game is one HTML page, is half a megabyte in size, has no graphics files and uses no Javascript libraries. The Javascript is 'minimised' with whitespace removed and names shortened. The source code is available. The game is developed with Linux's KDE Konqueror (KHTML) browser and tested on Internet Explorer. I understand KHTML was the basis for Webkit, used I think by the Safari and Chrome browsers.
