    I suppose playing cards in Europe are considered “gambling materials” under that logic and aren’t allowed to be sold to people under 18? That would be absurd.

      I would if they were selling them with chips and instructions on betting.

          That wasn’t the question posed. As has been said over and over Balatro is more than just “evil cards”

        Why?

        Instructions on betting can be easily found online, and most pick-up games use cash anyway. No kid is going through all the effort of using chips if they’re going to gamble, so getting chips may actually be a deterrent for getting into gambling.
