a game where the outcome is primarily determined by random factors such as luck or probability, and players typically have little or no control over the outcome
A game of chance is a game in which the outcome is largely determined by luck, rather than skill or strategy. Players have little or no control over the results, and winning or losing is based on random factors, such as rolling dice, drawing cards, or spinning a wheel. Examples of games of chance include lotteries, roulette, slot machines, and bingo. These games rely on unpredictable events, and the odds of winning are typically the same for all players, making them purely based on chance rather than any particular ability or decision-making.
