China is trying to prevent the emergence of gambling addiction among children and teenagers.
The first restrictions were introduced by the country's authorities in 2019 - minors were banned from playing from 10 pm to 8 am. In addition, on weekdays (except Friday), no more than 1.5 hours could be spent on online games.
