A local bill that would forbid "skill games" in the majority of establishments is being considered by the Philadelphia City Council.
A local law that would forbid the machines unless specific requirements are met has been proposed by ten Philadelphia council members.
By amending The Philadelphia Code, the bill would outlaw skill games such as the well-known Pennsylvania Skill series.
According to the bill, a gambling or skill-based cash payout device is any device that takes payments in cash in exchange for the possibility of winning money when playing one or more casino-style games, one or more skill-based games, or a mix of these games.
