Bingo Mode
This mod allows you to play Rain World in a completely new way! Customize your board, complete challenges, or compete for goals with other players!!
I recommend watching the two videos above for a good overview/explanation of what Bingo Mode is about!
You’ll get a lot of this through checking the mod out, but I want to give a quick description as well:
Available in the Expedition menu is an alternative gamemode built on top of Expedition. Remember that Bingo and Expedition saves are shared!
When in the bingo menu, you can hover over any challenge to find out its goal, click on any of them to customize specific values or change the challenge type alltogether, change the board size, and other cool things!
Multiplayer in Bingo is started by pressing the "Multiplayer" (wow) toggle in the top left corner. There, you might create or join a lobby! The host may pick everyone’s teams, which can decide if you want to cooperate or play competitively!
In Multiplayer, only the board states are shared online, you won’t see actual other player slugcats!
You may choose to play one of three gamemodes when playing multiplayer:
- Bingo – Completing any single line of goals counts as a win
- Lockout – Completing a goal prevents all of the other teams from completing the same one, you win the same as in Bingo gamemode, or through getting more than half of the squares, while all other teams are locked out of getting a bingo line.
- Blackout – Only completing every goal counts as a win
While in game, you may open the bingo board HUD using your specified keybind (remember to rebind it in the Remix settings!) – Space by default. There you can view your progress on all the goals!
In there, you may also "Tally up" – count goal completions for each team and conclude the game for everyone, if you wish to end early!
If you ever want to view copied bingo boards outside of the game, please check out the Bingo Mod Board Viewer[t3sl4co1l.github.io] made by T3sl4co1l!
Happy Bingoing! Hope you enjoy your stay. There’s a lot more to discover!
This mod is probably incompatible with Rain Meadow. Otherwise, when it comes to region or slugcat mods, they should work in bingo fine! I can’t guarantee compatibility though.
This mod is open source! Check it out on github here: https://github.com/Nacu0021/BingoMode
Feel free to make pull requests with new additions, improvements, and other things! If it’s proven to work and be stable and cool, I (or someone else) will gladly add your features to this mod!
Me personally, I won’t be updating this mod unless to fix it due to bugs/breaking changes (watcher dlc), so I give control of new features to anyone interested and commited! More info on the github page.

FULL DETAILED CREDITS CAN BE FOUND IN GAME (replacing the "Manual" button on the bingo menu)
This mod uses the new official Steam networking API for multiplayer communication in game, so I don’t expect it to have any security issues or vulnerabilities. However, I cannot guarantee that there aren’t or will never be any backdoors or other security vulnerabilities, the recommended playstyle by me is playing with people you know, which would eliminate this issue.
By downloading this mod you recognize the potential risks and accept that I (Nacu) as the original mod creator am not responsible for any damage caused by any malicious (or other) actions which this mod might have helped achieve through Steam’s networking API.
