ABSTRACT OF THE DISCLOSURE: To facilitate the playing of bingo, a computerized bingo-chain game device based on a central processing unit (CPU) is proposed. All of the number matrices of the available bingo punch cards are stored in the CPU, which is a microprocessor/storage unit. A display, constituted by a light emitting diodes (LED) dot matrix, is connected to the microprocessor/storage unit to identify the numbers selected by the player. A keyboard input unit, constituted by a MYLAR film, is connected to the microprocessor/ storage unit so that the player can input every called number into the storage of the microprocessor/storage unit. A plurality of transparent bingo cards, with preset punch codes along one side thereof, are read by a signal reading unit which also retrieves pre-stored data from the microprocessor/storage unit. The signal reading unit, constituted by a plurality of infrared LEDs and photo-coupled receivers, is connected to the microprocessor/storage unit to automatically read the data on the transparent cards, which are inserted into the signal reading unit,and to store the data into the storage of the microprocessor/storage unit. An erasing unit to manually erase the called numbers from the sto- rage of the microprocessor/storage unit after the bingo- chain game is over is also included in the device. The signals on the transparent bingo cards can also be repre- sented by bar codes. Data code and clock code on a single side of a transparent bingo card are read by the signal reading unit and can be pre-stored in the microprocessor/ storage unit. The data codes are verified by a double check sum unit in the microprocessor/storage unit.
