Comment on PEGI gives Balatro an 18+ rating for gambling imagery
IzzyScissor@lemmy.world 4 days agoThis analogy is garbage. The “nicotine vape for kids” isn’t Balatro, it’s loot boxes. Balatro would be like candy cigarettes.

Funny you should mention candy cigarettes.
Whether it’s candy cigarettes or a nicotine vape depends purely on the person playing the game. A gambling addict could easily see this as their nicotine vape, and it could easily prime kids for casinos.
