(actual life-ruining gambling is okay though, as long as you give the slot machine a thematic paint job)

PEGI is a joke, but it's a consistent joke. Any gameplay that looks like playing a casino game is consistently "simulated gambling" and an instant 18+. PEGI is why the Pokémon series stopped putting Game Corners in after gen 4, even though Pokémon's "slot machines" were timing-based skill challenges.
