Video Games of Chance

Any video game may be illegal. Some machines have the capability to change from a legal game (such as Trivia) to an illegal game (such as poker) with the flip of a switch. If the machine is capable of playing illegal games, it is considered a video game of chance.

Ask the lessor questions about the video games at the site to determine if they are legal. Some questions to ask:

• Is the machine capable of playing illegal games that include common gambling forms?
• Is the lessor aware of the consequences?

Contact the Department of Public Safety with questions.
