There is a new chess game played known as "blindfold chess" or mental
chess. The Buddha makes the following statement in Brahmajala sutta.

"Whereas some ascetics and Brahmins remain addicted to such games and
idle pursuits as eight- or ten-row chess, [18] chess in the air, [19]
hopscotch, spillikins, dicing, hitting sticks, 'hand-pictures', ball-
games, blowing through toy pipes, playing with toy ploughs, turning
somersaults, playing with toy windmills, measures, carriages, and bows,
guessing letters, [20] guessing thoughts, [21] mimicking deformities,
the ascetic Gotama refrains from such idle pursuits."

Can someone tell me what's the pali word Buddha used to indicate chess..
