Who are the characters, and what do they wear?

Updated on 29 October 2026

Everything in After Bingo is a drawing seen from straight above, the way the camera sees it: six regulars of a bingo club, the eight weapons they fight with, and the knives, outfits and hats they can wear. This page shows the best of those drawings, says who each character is and tells you how each prize is earned or bought. None of it changes how hard you hit: the looks are yours to choose, and the fight stays fair.

How the art works

Each character is one drawing, cut into seven parts: the body, the shirt, the head, two arms and two feet. The game moves those parts to make the breath, the stride, the swing and the recoil, so the figure you see in a match is the drawing itself, not a strip of frames. Every drawing shares one look: a thick black outline, flat colours with one light edge, and no shadow on the floor.

The shirt is grey inside the game and takes the colour of your seat in the match, so you can tell the players apart at a glance; on Pearl and Mabel it is the collar. Each weapon has its own drawing of the arms that hold it, which is why the bat sits on the shoulder and the tazer is held out in one hand.

The six characters

Six regulars of the bingo club fight in the hall and in the forest. Three are yours from the first game: you pick one on your first visit and can switch on the Profile at any time. The other three are sold in the Store and wait there behind a padlock until you buy them. Every character has the same health and the same knife, and the bots never wear prizes.

Stan seen from above in a brown jacket and yellow shirt, a dagger in his right hand — **Stan**Free. Bald, with heavy white eyebrows, a brown jacket and a yellow shirt. He is ticked first on the pick.

Lou seen from above in glasses, a grey beard and a black jacket over a light blue shirt — **Lou**Free. Glasses, a grey beard and a black jacket over a light blue shirt with cuffs to match.

Pearl seen from above with a grey bun, glasses, pearls and a purple cardigan — **Pearl**Free. A grey bun, glasses and a string of pearls over a flowered dress, in a purple cardigan.

Otis seen from above in a checked flat cap, glasses, a white moustache and a red jacket with blue braces, leaning on a walking stick — **Otis**In the Store. A checked flat cap, a white moustache and a red jacket with blue braces. His walking stick stays home in a match.

Gus seen from above with a grey beard, a light blue diamond shirt, red braces and grey shorts — **Gus**In the Store. Grey side hair and beard, a light blue shirt printed with diamonds, red braces and grey shorts.

Mabel seen from above with grey curls, hoop earrings and a teal knitted vest over a yellow shirt — **Mabel**In the Store. Grey curls, hoop earrings and a teal cable-knit vest over a yellow shirt.

The eight weapons

Everyone spawns with the knife; the other seven lie on the floor of each map and come back a while after someone takes them. The bat, the tazer and the bazooka are shown in Stan's hands, the way the game holds them, and the rest as drawings of their own. Damage, reach and speed are on the weapons page.

The knife, a steel dagger with a ridged brown handle — **Knife**A steel dagger with a ridged brown handle. The weakest weapon, and the fastest one to run with.

Stan seen from above with a wooden baseball bat over his shoulder — **Baseball bat**A plain wooden bat, carried over the shoulder. Its swing sweeps from the right shoulder round to the front.

The sledgehammer, a steel block on a long wooden handle — **Sledgehammer**A steel block on a long wooden handle. The blow lands a moment after you press, and one is enough.

The shotgun, blue steel on a wooden stock — **Shotgun**Blue steel on a wooden stock. It fires one heavy slug, and two of them win the fight.

The flamethrower, purple with a yellow tank and a small flame at the nozzle — **Flamethrower**Purple, with a yellow tank and a pilot flame that never goes out. Hold the attack and it pours fire.

Stan seen from above holding out a yellow tazer with blue sparks — **Tazer**Yellow, with blue sparks at the tip. Its dart holds whoever it hits in place for a moment.

The SMG, a black gun with a long barrel and a magazine — **SMG**Black from stock to muzzle. Hold the attack and it keeps firing; ten rounds bring a man down.

Stan seen from above with an olive green bazooka on his shoulder — **Bazooka**An olive green tube with a yellow band, rested on the shoulder. Its rocket bursts and hurts everyone near it but the shooter.

Outfits

An outfit dresses Stan or Lou, sleeves and all, in every weapon's hold. Lou wears each one here; the shirt underneath still takes your seat's colour.

Lou seen from above in a shining gold jacket — **Gold jacket**Sold in the Store for golden bingo balls, alone or in the Gold set. It glows warm gold in a match.

Lou seen from above in a burgundy velvet smoking jacket with black lapels — **Smoking jacket**Deep red velvet with black lapels. It is the prize for reaching the rank of Living Legend.

Lou seen from above in a dark red dressing gown tied at the waist — **Dressing gown**Dark red and tied at the waist, for those who came straight from bed. Bought with bingo balls on the Prize table.

Hats

Most hats were drawn on Otis's head, which shows faintly under them here, and every character can wear them. A hat turns with the head when your character glances aside.

A shining golden top hat — **Golden top hat**Sold in the Store for golden bingo balls, alone or in the Gold set.

Otis seen from above wearing a gold crown lined with red velvet — **Crown**Gold, lined with red velvet. It is the prize for reaching the rank of Grand Elder.

Knives

A knife skin changes the blade in your hand, never its reach or its damage, and every character can hold it. It shows in your slot at the bottom of the screen as well.

The diamond knife, a blue crystal blade with a gold guard and a red handle — **Diamond knife**A blade of blue crystal on a gold guard and a red handle. Sold in the Store, it glows ice blue.

The golden knife, gold from tip to pommel with a ridged grip — **Golden knife**Gold from tip to pommel. Sold in the Store, alone or in the Gold set, and it glows warm gold.

The veteran's dagger, a steel blade with a handle in red and white stripes and a white star — **Veteran's dagger**A handle in stars and stripes behind a gold guard. Given to whoever reaches a thousand kills.

The cleaver, a wide steel blade on a wooden handle with two rivets — **Cleaver**A butcher's cleaver on a riveted wooden handle. Bought with bingo balls on the Prize table.

The cake server, a wedge blade with a scalloped edge on a wooden handle — **Cake server**A wedge with a scalloped edge on an orange handle, straight from the club's tea table. The prize for reaching Bingo Regular.
