I would definitely call, the raise could seem scary but the callers give your call a good value. If you hit, it is bingo! If the turn is not what you were waiting then reevaluate your situation according to the raise and call.

Don't bet the flop given your stack size and into 3 opponents OOP in a limped pot, and you'll find yourself in those situations less.

"Bingo!" is an awesome tournament approach. It also loses money.

Call as played.

Pre flop is ok, but against 2 OOP I would never bet here, the flop has made you more interested but you're behind at this point.
Against 1 opponent maybe CR if they tend to bet the flops with nothing but are capable of folding.
As played you have a 13% chance of hitting a safe out on the turn with pot odds of 15% so its easy call.
