I can guess.
These are games where you earn points (in the form of tokens). Those points place you on a leaderboard within your club.
Just like if you were playing any their game which gives you a score and let's you compare your score with other people.
The catch here is that the games are all simulated Casino games - and one way to boost your score if you got "unlucky" is to spend real money on more fake tokens.
The games are "fun" because they emulate 100+ years of casino development in terms of figuring out what mechanisms people enjoy the most.
