“Luck be a Landlord is a roguelike deckbuilder about using a slot machine to earn rent money and defeat capitalism. This game does not contain any real-world currency gambling or microtransactions.”
For those curious about the game. Game details from Metacritic.
So it’s literally a slot machine simulator…
And the guy who made it doesn’t understand why it’s being taken down for gambling?
No because that’s not killing anyone.
But a slot machine simulator is still gambling even if it doesn’t really pay out.
So a slot machine simulator getting banned in countries that ban gambling makes perfect sense.
But the creator apparently thinks it’s because those countries just love capitalism so much…
I don’t know what’s hard to understand
Anybody who has played the game will know how much of a dumbass take this is. It’s no more a “slot machine simulator” than Doom is a “military training simulator”.
Uh oh, looks like all the Borderlands games are illegal. Gearbox better watch out
Too bad lootboxes are banned in a lot of countries so you couldn’t make a closer analogy…
Star Fox has a secret level with a slot machine as a boss and the only way to beat it is to successfully get a jackpot. It’s as much of a gambling sim as this dude’s game is.
Not FIFA though.
This is a new low if we are banning games like this in this world. I’m just gonna assume the people who banned it have never been to a casino once in their life, let alone seen a real slot machine.
