In Episode IV, on the way to Alderaan aboard the Millennium Falcon, we see Chewbacca playing (and losing) a chess-like game with R2-D2. Does this game have a name? Do we know what its rules are?

"Holo-Chess" was the more common name I heard growing up.– phantom42May 16, 2013 at 12:33

The name of the game is Dejarik as confirmed both by Wookieepedia and my Haynes Corellian YT-1300 Manual.
I am unaware of any official rules but of course fans have created their own unofficial rules to the game

That Haynes guide looks awesome. It doesn't appear technical enough, needs more diagrams and instructions! Jan 12, 2017 at 18:14
