Hintaro

Hintaro was a dice game for at least two players. It was played with chance cubes that were traditionally marked with the symbols "Tukar" and "Kulro," as well as a single unique die known as the hintaro, which had the symbols "Hin" and "Taro" on it. During each round of the game, the players would each roll a pair of dice, one of which they could reroll. After each player had rolled, a special player called the hintaron would roll the hintaro. The result of that die modified the rolls of all the players, after which the winner of the round was determined.

The planets Chazwa and Corsin both claimed to be the birthplace of hintaro, although the existence of a single origin point for the game was unlikely. Between 1 ABY and 3 ABY, hintaro was played at the cantina Four-and-a-Half on the planet Bespin's Cloud City. The Chiss hunter Kres'keth'errylu once played hintaro against an assassin droid at a smuggler's hideaway.
