Boxes

Does anyone know if there's another name for "Boxes"?

As in the game you play with pen and paper - starting with a grid of dots and then connecting lines to win boxes.

I know that game! When I was a kid I thought my mate Andrew Finney invented it. We used to play it in class, but then everyone else cottoned on when a teacher was nearby, but he never did, and used to get into detention. We used to laugh.

I can't remember what we used to call it Im afraid, maybe 'the graph paper game?
