Scholars differ. Many forbid it when it is played for money (as gambling, 5:90) or if it makes a person neglect prayer. The Shafi'i school permitted it as disliked, and the other schools often forbade it. Games that cause no sin or neglect are allowed in general, so avoid betting and keep prayer on time.
يَٰٓأَيُّهَا ٱلَّذِينَ ءَامَنُوٓا۟ إِنَّمَا ٱلْخَمْرُ وَٱلْمَيْسِرُ وَٱلْأَنصَابُ وَٱلْأَزْلَٰمُ رِجْسٌۭ مِّنْ عَمَلِ ٱلشَّيْطَٰنِ فَٱجْتَنِبُوهُ لَعَلَّكُمْ تُفْلِحُونَ ﴿٩٠﴾
O ye who believe! Strong drink and games of chance and idols and divining arrows are only an infamy of Satan's handiwork. Leave it aside in order that ye may succeed.
This is general information, not a fatwa. For your own situation, ask a qualified scholar.
