C-3PO to R2-D2 when a winning move of R2's prompts Han Solo to explain that Wookiees sometimes pull out people's arms[src]

Dejarik was a popular holographic game that was played throughout the galaxy. When activated, the game would project holographic playing pieces that resembled dangerous-looking species from throughout the galaxy. The players could move their pieces to attack one another and said pieces would behave like living beings when in battle. The planet Abafar hosted the Abafar Junior Dejarik Club in the city of Pons Ora. Advertisements for the club strictly prohibited Wookiees from participating.[1]
