“The minister said, "For the first time we have prepared a framework regarding online gaming, in that we will not allow 3 types of games in the country. Games that involve betting or can be harmful to the user and that involves a factor of addiction will be banned in the country.”

However, “he did not mention the parameters that will be used to classify games under any of the three categories.”

So, basicaly any good game can be classified as addictive, since you wanna play it.
