Everyone knows bingo. Each player gets a piece of paper with numbers, one after the other numbers are drawn and ticked and whoever has a row of ticks first shouts “Bingo” and wins. Get to know you Bingo, on the other hand, is an interactive social game that gets people to talk to each other about interesting topics they would never have talked about otherwise. You don’t have to make small talk, but get right into interesting and personal topics and quickly learn exciting things, characteristics and traits in conversation. In this way, you quickly come across amazing similarities and the same views and characteristics, which make you want to talk further and get to know each other better and on which you can even build a friendship.
As a real icebreaker game for parties, the fun stands and falls with the questions on the bingo slips. These should never be boring and should arouse curiosity and leave room for discussion without snubbing or being awkward.

How to Play Get To Know You Bingo?
Get to know you Bingo is a super icebreaker game for parties, meetings or get-togethers with at least 20 people. Everyone gets a bingo card with 25 squares of questions to fill in. The first person to fill in a row vertically, horizontally or diagonally shouts “Bingo” and is the winner. The game continues until 3 people have shouted bingo and are ranked 1-3. Alternatively, you can play it until everyone has filled in a row on their bingo card. The winner’s, 2nd and 3rd place slips go into the scoring and it is checked that each name is also only there once.
Each field must be filled in with the answer and the name of the person who gave it. Only one field per person may be filled in.
If you want, you can reward the winner and 2nd and 3rd place with small funny prizes as an incentive to do your best.
Rules
- Fill in only one field per person
- write the answer and the name of the person in the field
- The first person to fill in a row horizontally, vertically or diagonally is the winner and shouts “Bingo”.
