As a digital storyteller with a background in social psychology, I reflect on the night I played my final coin on an online bingo game—only to discover that what I’d been chasing wasn’t luck, but presence. In this essay, I explore how games like Super Bingo become modern rituals of connection, not just for entertainment, but as emotional anchors in our solitary lives. Drawing from flow theory and personal experience, I examine how play can be a tender act of self-compassion. If you’ve ever felt alone while clicking through numbers under dim light, this is for you.
