Crazy. The benchmark for age ratings should be based in the game design, not solely aesthetics. Balatro doesn't tell you to enter your credit card details and use psychologically manipulative tactics to maximise player spend, like other games good for ages 3+.
Of course, then PEGI would need to do some actual research into the games they're rating.
