    Maybe look into the game being discussed even a little before commenting on it.

      I did. I’m not going to go buy it for this though. They literally use poker terms, poker imagery, and real poker hands. Saying it’s just because there’s cards involved is disingenuous.

        And yet you say it’s cause of “gambling”. So you’re either lying about looking into it or lying about what you saw.

        You could use the same for majong or pachinko like games like Peggle. The issue is the actual gambling, not just the game elements or risk, reward, and points going up. Loot boxes are 10× worse.

          No, we know that stuff that glorifies addictive activities can recruit or cause relapse as well.
