It’s a strategy/puzzle/autobattler game.

It’s loosely gambling themed in that it uses one of those pull the handle spiny wheel mechanics to draw your “units” for the turn and has some gambling iconography.

The issue here would be overreactive governments setting rules about gambling and children, being unable to differentiate a game game and a lootbox machine.

Doing absolutely nothing about lootboxes though.
