It's E in America according to IGN. 1000046111

If it's E in NA, then why is it rated 18+ in Europe?

"Gambling," because it uses poker hands, I guess.

Which is completely stupid because there's no gambling in the game at all, poker hands are simply used to score points. It's completely nonsensical.

NA mostly uses ESRB while most of Europe uses PEGI as their rating board. They're different organizations so they can have different criterias for rating as well as different inspectors actually doing the rating.

Doesn't E stand for Everyone?

I'm not sure if this is satire, but America isn't everyone. :)
