Slowfoodnl: Dedication to Ethical Social Gaming

At Slowfoodnl, we are committed to advocating for responsible gaming as a crucial part of our dedication to customer care and social responsibility.

We trust it is our responsibility to guarantee your enjoyment on our platform while being aware of the possible risks linked with PC gaming when not approached with control.

To support a safe and enjoyable gaming experience, we promote responsible gaming and provide tools for players interested in effectively managing their gaming habits.

1. Maintain Control

Gaming should be an enjoyable pastime. Follow these tips to assist you in managing your gaming experience:

• Gaming is a form of entertainment and should be enjoyed in moderation. It should not be used as an escape from reality or as a method to earn income through prizes.
• Be aware of your time. While we’re delighted to have you, gaming should not consume your day. Treat it like any other recreational activity, such as going to the movies or bowling.
• Utilize our game management tools. If you require a break, feel free to pause your gaming session at any time by following the instructions in Section 2.
• If you think you are playing too much, please review the self-assessment questions in Section 3 to assess your habits.

2. Taking Charge

We promote responsible gaming by providing various features aimed at assisting you in maintaining control.
