Gaming in the Nordics is not considered as a topic of every-day life. In fact, it is on the controversial side due to the heavy regulations and restrictions that the governments have imposed on the industry. Although there are quite a lot of countries that classify as Nordic (yes even Estonia sometimes), I’ll be focusing on the most restrictive ones such as Sweden and Norway.

However, there may be some distinctions with Norway as it is the hardest market to enter, therefore the most focus will be given to them.
