Your task is to connect these nine dots. You must use straight, continuous lines.

You may not lift your finger once you have begun. You may not retrace a line you have already drawn.

What is the fewest number of lines necessary to complete this task?

You have two minutes to respond.

It seemed so straightforward. Five lines. That’s what it took to hit every dot. But it seemed too easy. The society’s puzzles were harder than this. But no matter what I did, I couldn’t do it in less than five.

Don’t you have eyes to see?

My body tensed, not with anxiety that I’d heard the voice, but with anger that its words were so completely useless. “Eyes to see what?” I shouted at my screen as the timer passed the one-minute mark.

And then, in a flash, out of nowhere, it seemed, the solution came to me. I’d been keeping my lines within the confines of the dots. If I swung my lines out wide, I could do it in four.
