Are drinking games forbidden?

Wondering the same thing 🤔

There are plenty of "drinking game" apps listed, and actively updated, on the App Store now that would indicate otherwise.

Apps such as iPuke: The Drinking Game, Picolo drinking game and 
Drink Roulette: Drinking Games are obviously permitted when they explicitly have "Drinking Game" in their title, something which Apple (supposedly?) doesn't allow.

Not sure exactly where the line for "excessive use" is, considering those apps promote extremely excessive (abusive) use, I would say. We are attempting to release an app that is not game related in any way and does not promote excessive use of alcohol, yet are getting rejected, and apps likes those mentioned above are able to make it into the App Store?

It doesn't make a lot of sense.

According to an apple employee, with the updated guidelines, drinking games are not permitted anymore.
In the past they were, that's why there are plenty of drinking game apps like mine Drink it - Drinking Game.
At the moment these apps can't be updated anymore and might get removed from app store in future. At least that's what I got told as the reason for rejected updates.

Thanks for the info @northerndevelopment and @nerdymind. We have Tomanji App and we have no way to do an update on iOS :( We had many updates (8) rejected without knowing why

Do you know why this random measure was taken by Apple? will it be changed in the future?
