The essentials
Every player follows the same calls on a different 5×5 card.
Give each player a unique card. The center square is normally free and counts toward the pattern.
Show the exact winning shape before the first number is called.
Draw without replacement and say the letter first: for example, “B 12.”
Match every marked square in the pattern to the caller’s history.
This quick practice draw never repeats a number. Use the full caller for voice, auto-call, history and fullscreen.

The letter tells players which column to check. Each column owns exactly 15 numbers.
| Column | Numbers | Squares on a card | Example call |
|---|---|---|---|
| B | 1–15 | 5 numbers | B 7 |
| I | 16–30 | 5 numbers | I 24 |
| N | 31–45 | 4 numbers + free center | N 38 |
| G | 46–60 | 5 numbers | G 52 |
| O | 61–75 | 5 numbers | O 71 |
A card therefore displays 24 called numbers, not 25. The free center occupies the middle of the N column. Cards should not simply contain 24 random values from the full range; keeping each number in its correct letter column lets players locate calls quickly.
Start simple, then change the shape between rounds. Always display the pattern before calling.
Five marked squares across, down or diagonally. Best for a fast opening round.
Only the four outer corners count. It is easy to explain and visually verify.
Both diagonals, including the free center. A longer round than a single line.
Every playable square must be marked. Blackout usually takes longest, so it works well as the final or highest-prize round. Other common shapes include an outer frame, postage stamp, kite and letters. Avoid a shape that players cannot recognize at a glance.

A standard card has 24 numbers plus a free center square. Each of the five letter columns has five spaces.
B has 1–15, I has 16–30, N has 31–45, G has 46–60 and O has 61–75.
A horizontal, vertical or diagonal line is the common first round. The host can announce four corners, an X, a frame, blackout or another pattern instead.
Yes. The cards, number pools and winning rules differ. Do not mix 75-ball cards with a 90-ball caller.
