AI Summary

This bill provides for skill-based amusement games to be licensed and regulated by the state liquor authority (the "authority"). The bill defines "skill-based amusement game" as a game played for consideration where the player's strategy and skill, rather than chance, are the primary factors in determining the outcome. The bill requires the authority to license manufacturers, operators, and locations of these games, and imposes a 10% tax on the gross revenue from these games. The bill also sets out various criteria that skill-based amusement games must meet, such as requiring players to be at least 21 years old and prohibiting the games from being facsimiles of casino games.
