These aren't mobile games, they're desktop games, and this isn't anything new. These same themes and effects have been used for decades. As someone else points out, even the retro Mario games have you use spinners and slot machines. RNG is exciting and helps make a fun and engaging game. I mean, by that same logic, a game like Catan should be banned because one of its primary mechanics is just being rewarded for favorable dice rolls, as you would be when gambling on dice.

There is a metric fuckton of slot machine games on the playstore. This game, which isn't gambling, is being limited while other slot machine games aren't.

It would be different if the policy was applied equally to other apps as well.

But if their primary gameplay is a slot machine simulator, then yeah, I wouldn’t be surprised if they’re also banned.

You've been told multiple times it is not.

LbaL is also on Steam btw, I played it there a few years ago

Really, Luck Be A Landlord just needs to call them 'duty free luck draws' or something. Or disguise the slots as horse races. Gambling is rampant in places like the UAE, it's just gamed,(haw). So that's all LBAL would need to do. I doubt it's worth the effort for the sales in the countries banning it though.

But it’s 2023 and it’s not legal. So sure, if in 2027 it’s legal and this mobile slot machine simulator is still banned, maybe it would matter

Except gambling on racing is legal.

Are you just trolling?

It sounds like you have no fucking clue what you're talking about. Have you ever actually played any of the Borderlands games? Or are you like @Detheroth and considering the event/pre-order exclusive codes needed to unlock golden keys as a lootbox, despite them not actually selling them for money? FFS, you can cheat to obtain these things by just copying your save file, since they're stored locally on your profile.

If you had argued over the season pass shit, you'd have somewhat of a point, though not anything to do with gambling. But you decided to focus on lootboxes.

For someone who calls everyone else stupid, you're pretty damn ignorant yourself.
