You can make tic tac toe as many dimensions as you'd like. It's easy enough to do on paper. 4D tic tac toe is only 27 squares. 5D is an overwhelming 81, but there's nothing stopping you from drawing 81 squares on a piece of paper.

The issue is that tic tac toe becomes a worse game the more dimensions that you add. The entire point of the game (if there even is a point) is to block the other person from winning.

The more directions that lines can point in the more pointless it becomes to try and block your opponent.

You're being down voted for answering an ELI5 on a topic you know zilch about.

And I'm not sure why you're replying to my comment with this sarcasm after I genuinely engaged with your comment and explained what you were pondering

I'm replying because I am in fact a genius

I'm the guy who came up with the political solution of disenfranchising all men

I'm the guy who came up with the idea to teach all babies sign language

I'm the guy who first discovered that quantum entanglement does in fact communicate information: it guarantees that randomness can be the same all over the universe at the same time

I think that this discussion could be more polite that's all
