Skill Games

In the Arabian world, most online gaming hasn’t picked up, mainly because of cultural and religious taboos in Islam around anything considered remotely related to gambling.

Different countries have varying approaches to games of skill online and offline. In Saudi Arabia there are even religious decrees against playing games that are almost entirely based on skill like chess. In places like the UAE betting on things like horse racing events for money is considered illegal.

Players should look up gaming laws in their respective countries before playing.
