65000 EUR
Top War, a so called strategy game was the preferred game of a man from Antwerp. He was so addicted to it, that he spent almost 65000 EUR to buy “loot boxes” in the game.
Now, in Belgium “loot boxes” are prohibited because of the gambling aspect. Only casinos are allowed to provide such games.
So the man sued Apple for the amount he spent in the game. And the court ruled in favour of the man from Antwerp. Apple has to repay the man for the money he lost.
Apple doesn’t want to pay
Apple isn’t planning to pay the money back and shields with some kind of European regulation. It will probably take another two years before things are completely cleared out…
Sincerely,
