Nd game

A nd game (or nk game) is a generalization of the combinatorial game tic-tac-toe to higher dimensions. It is a game played on a nd hypercube with 2 players. If one player creates a line of length n of their symbol (X or O) they win the game. However, if all nd spaces are filled then the game is a draw. Tic-tac-toe is the game where n equals 3 and d equals 2 (3, 2). Qubic is the (4, 3) game. The (n > 0, 0) or (1, 1) games are trivially won by the first player as there is only one space (n0 = 1 and 11 = 1). A game with d = 1 and n > 1 cannot be won if both players are playing well as an opponent's piece will block the one-dimensional line.

Game theory
An nd game is a symmetric  combinatorial game.

There are a total of $$\frac{\left(n+2\right)^d-n^d}{2}$$ winning lines in a nd game.

For any width n, at some dimension d (thanks to the Hales-Jewett theorem), there will always be a winning strategy for player X. There will never be a winning strategy for player O because of the Strategy-stealing argument since an nd game is symmetric.
