About

In Panel Action Bingo, players take on the role of a bird and compete against an AI cat to move around a 5X5 grid to try and earn Bingos. Panels must be claimed sequentially, meaning that players start with the panel numbered 1 and work their way up trying to grab the next number in the sequence before the cat does. Once a diagonal, horizontal, or vertical match is made, the round is won and the player moves onto the next one, but if no Bingos are made the victor is instead whoever claimed the most spaces. The cat and bird both need to move to the right spot to claim them and some boards will replace number panels with either a white barrier to prevent movement or a black hole that will lead to an instant loss if the player falls into it.

There are 60 levels total consisting of 3 rounds each, a bonus round happening after the three rounds where the player cannot lose but needs to reach moles popping out of the ground before the cat to earn extra points. At the halfway point the game switches from counting up to counting down. Players can play with letters of the alphabet instead, the game leaving out letters from different parts of the alphabet depending on the stage. Settings can also be adjusted to make the game board slippery, prevent players from hogging spots by teleporting them after standing still for 3 seconds, or hide some or all of the Bingo tiles until a player tries to mark them. Panel Action Bingo can also be played against another human player.
