Linux Distributions Bingo Card

These cards are about Linux Distributions. OSS software developers have created many different flavors of Linux. Perhaps you use one in your classroom? These include words like Arch, BlankOn, ElementOS, GnackTrack, and Slackware.

We made the cards using Bingo Card Creator. You can download a PDF file of eight cards ready to cut up and play.

How To Play Types of Linux Bingo

  1. Print out your free Linux Distributions bingo boards, or make custom ones with Bingo Card Creator. Click here to get started.
  2. Give one card to each player.
  3. Call off words randomly, for example by using a call list. You can either just say a word, like "Fluxbuntu", or you can make up a more involved clue involving Fluxbuntu.
  4. When a word is called, each player should find it and mark it.
  5. The first player(s) to clear five words in any direction (horizontal, vertical, or diagonal) wins a small prize.

Notes: How long a bingo game lasts depends on what pace you read the clues at and how many players you have. If you read faster, such as for older or more experienced students, or if you have more players, the game tends to end more quickly. In general, I suggest allocating between twenty and thirty minutes to a bingo game. Since they can potentially end as early as the fourth word called, though that is quite rare, I encourage you to keep playing in the event of the game being over earlier than you expected it to be. Almost 90% of bingo games with a 25 word list and 25 players will see their first bingo within 7 to 11 words being called.
