What is a .BINGO file?
A .BINGO file is a type of file known as a Bingo Project. It is created with a program called Bingo, which was a special version of a programming environment originally developed at MIT called Scratch. Unlike Scratch, which is still in use, Bingo has been discontinued and is no longer updated.
The content of a .BINGO file includes binary code. This binary code is special because the Bingo program can read it and convert it into a visual form of programming that uses blocks. These blocks make it easier to understand and manipulate the programming commands, especially for beginners.
However, it's important to note that files with the .BINGO extension cannot be opened with the standard Scratch program. They can only be opened with the Bingo software. Unfortunately, since Bingo has been discontinued by its developer, FutureSight, it might be difficult to find a working version of this software to open .BINGO files. All versions of FutureSight Bingo listed are marked as discontinued, which means they are no longer supported or updated by the developer.
Verification
Our goal is to help people find the most up-to-date information about file extensions for Windows, Mac, Linux, Android and iOS. We researched over 10,000 file extensions and their respective programs that open those files. If you want to suggest edits or updates about .BINGO file formats, example files, or programs that are compatible. Please contact us.
