editShould the content of this section be moved to the disambiguation page? It seems strange to include it here. --- Vroo (talk) 20:29, 31 October 2020 (UTC)
Prior art
editIt's worth noting how curved bits or especially the eyes of an animal, or other non-contiguous parts of the lineart are already in the puzzle for you, completed... 01:16, 5 August 2007 75.72.21.221 (talk)
- Agree, but think that would be pursuing the metaphor, i.e., in a bad way. 72.228.150.44 (talk) 02:28, 27 January 2010 (UTC)
- Ah, sorry, see it was already incorporated by a previous editor, perhaps yourself. 72.228.150.44 (talk) 02:32, 27 January 2010 (UTC)
Puzzle?
editI think you have to use the term "puzzle" very loosely for connect-the-dots to fit the definition. Other than knowing how to count, they require no cognitive ability at all. I think they are better termed "drawing guides" or "drawing activities" than puzzles. Do we have a reputable source stating that they are indeed a form of puzzle? — Preceding unsigned comment added by 12.106.209.61 (talk) 19:46, 15 June 2011 (UTC)
- The fact that puzzle publishers include connect-the-dots puzzles in their publications is sufficient evidence that they qualify as puzzles even if some people find them trivial. Solved games are still games. --- Vroo (talk) 20:29, 31 October 2020 (UTC)
