''[[Tic-tac-toe]]'', also called "tick tack toe", or "noughts and crosses"/"Xs and Os" as it is known in the United Kingdom, Australia and New Zealand, is a pencil-and-paper game of unknown origin. Two players, X and O, take turns marking the spaces in a 3×3 grid. The X player usually goes first. The player who succeeds in placing three respective marks in a horizontal, vertical, or diagonal row wins the game. If the board fills up before anyone accomplishes this (which is very likely to happen between players with any experience), the game is a draw.
The first video game, ''[[OXO]]'', is pretty much this in video game form. It was the basis for ''[[Tic-Tac-Dough]]'' and ''[[The Hollywood Squares]]'', as well as the Secret "X" game on ''[[The Price Is Right]]''.

* [[Casual Game]]
* [[House Rules]]: Once the 3x3 grid gets too easy, players may trade up to a larger grid size. There's also a "3D" variant, played simultaneously on three separate grids (to simulate a cube), where getting three in a row in any direction (even across different grids) counts as a win.
