Frequently Asked Questions
Everything You Need to Know
Are skill games legal?
Yes. Skill games are legal in Pennsylvania because they require player skill and decision-making rather than relying purely on chance. Courts and regulators generally classify them differently from slot machines, which are considered games of chance and often restricted to licensed casinos.
How are skill games different from slot machines?
Slot machines are 100% chance-based — players have no control over the outcome. Skill games, on the other hand, require player interaction and decision-making that directly affects whether they win. Your skill level matters, not just luck.
Why aren’t skill games considered gambling?
Gambling laws are usually built around “chance-based outcomes.” Because skill games include a measurable element of skill, they are categorized differently. Winning depends not only on chance, but also on the player’s ability, timing, and judgment.
Do skill games pay out like slot machines?
Our Skill games award cash prizes, but the key difference is that your skill determines your success.
What kind of skill is required to win?
Depending on the game, players may need to nudge, use memory, hand-eye coordination, and pattern recognition. Unlike slots, your effort and decisions can change the outcome.
Why are skill games becoming more popular?
They provide entertainment plus a challenge. Players enjoy the feeling of control and fairness that comes from knowing their choices affect the result.
