Tic-tac-toe, also spelled tick tack toe, or noughts and crosses as it is known in the UK, Australia, New Zealand, is a pencil-and-paper game for two players, O and X, who take turns marking the spaces in a 3×3 grid, usually X  going first. The player who succeeds in placing three respective marks in a horizontal, vertical, or diagonal row wins the game.

The earliest known variant of tic-tac-toe originated in the Roman Empire around the first century BC. It was called Terni Lapilli and instead of having any number of pieces, each player only had three, thus they had to move them around to empty spaces to keep playing. The game's grid markings have been found chalked all over Rome.

The name "tic-tac-toe" may ultimately derive from "tick-tack", the name of an old version of backgammon  first described in 1558. The first print reference to "noughts and crosses", the British name for tic-tac-toe, occurred in 1864. The first print reference to a game called "tick-tack-toe" occurred in 1884, but referred to "a children's game played on a slate, consisting in trying with the eyes shut to bring the pencil down on one of the numbers of a set, the number hit being scored". The U.S. renaming of noughts and crosses as tic-tac-toe occurred in the 20th century. The article "Tic-tac-toe" is part of the Wikipedia encyclopedia. HTTPS://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Tic-tac-toe
