[Puzzle 003]

Does anyone want to help celebrate the new year with a puzzle? I made it up myself!

Which of these shapes can't be drawn without picking your pen up from the page or retracing any lines?



It's okay if you cross over a line you already made, but if you've got it all right you shouldn't need to.

Don't tell anyone else your answer! I'm not going to give it away to everyone either.

He will be at Seventh Heaven, chowing down for dinner. Boy can eat half a menu when he's hungry.]

Yep! You got it!

But how did you know?

In this particular case, it was just by looking at the amount of intersections.

...You knew the trick.

You seem disappointed.

It's always more fun when the person solving the puzzle doesn't know the trick right away.

Understandable. But you're always bound to run into someone like that every once in a while.

So have you done a lot of puzzles before?

I've done a few now and again when I've had time on my hands.

That's great! Do you know any? I'd love to hear a puzzle from another world.
