Ratchet Bingo: Police BodyCam Edition is a party game app you play alongside real police bodycam footage found on sites like YouTube, Rumble, or TikTok. You open a video, and the app gives you a randomized bingo card built from a pool of 1,000 tiles spread across 20 categories, covering things like common phrases people say on camera and other recurring moments. As the video plays, you tap tiles on your card as those moments happen, aiming to complete a row, column, or diagonal for a bingo, or mark every tile for what the app calls a blackout. The app is built with the Kivy framework and is distributed for Windows, as an installer or an MSIX package, and for Android as a direct APK download rather than through the Play Store. It offers 8 board sizes ranging from a small 3 by 3 grid up to a 10 by 10 grid, 4 rarity tiers for tiles, and 20 visual themes to choose from. Players can adjust how often each tile or category appears using weight sliders, add their own custom tiles, and the app tracks lifetime stats like total score, bingos, and blackouts, saving your current card automatically. Android users get haptic feedback on taps, and Windows users get a fullscreen toggle. The README notes that Windows SmartScreen may flag the installer since it is unsigned indie software, and that this is not a sign of malware. It also states plainly that the tile content is satirical commentary on publicly broadcast police interactions and that the app does not endorse any specific real-world conduct. This is a lightweight cross-platform utility aimed at people who want a lighthearted, structured way to watch and react to this genre of video with friends. It is released under the MIT license.
