(actual life-ruining gambling is okay though, as long as you give the slot machine a thematic paint job)
I’ve played RPGs, aimed at kids and young adults, with full-on casinos in them that didn’t get this rating. Belatro has no microtransactions, there’s no real money involved after purchasing the game itself. I would say it’s less harmful than learning actual poker or blackjack in a kid’s JRPG, since Belatro is not a real game that a person could ever play in real life.
