Housie, also known as Tombola or Indian Bingo, is a game originated in Italy involving numbered tickets. Players must buy a ticket with numbers 1-90 arranged in 3 rows and 9 columns. A game conductor randomly calls out numbers, and players mark their tickets. The objective is to complete patterns like getting 5 early numbers or filling a whole line first. Winning patterns include early five numbers, a full line, four corners, or a full house of all numbers. The first player to correctly mark a winning pattern on their ticket and call out "bingo" wins that round.
