Skillz and real-money gaming

jdbc

What do you think about Skillz http://skillz.com/

Have anyone integrated it? It seems interesting for some type of games.

Me too.

Apparently if you use Skillz then you have to rate your game 12+.

Maybe it's good for a special release or for games that already attract this rating - eg Slot Machines (but are they a game of skill?)...

I was afraid it might be considered as gambling

Skills won't release a game unless it's fixed or random to a specific seed (their own random generator). This way it is a game of sill - not a slot machine. So not really technically gambling - but it is. Apple see it as gambling, so do google it seems so 12+ (I always though gambling should be 18+ though).
