Frequently asked questions
▸How many dots can a puzzle have?
Between 8 and 60, depending on the preset and the density you pick. Every dot is numbered in path order, and an optional answer page shows the completed outline for checking.
▸What shapes are available?
Presets include star, house, boat, fish, rocket, cat face, flower and heart. Each preset is a parametric outline sampled to the dot count you choose, so the same preset scales from beginner to advanced.
▸Can kids color the puzzle after connecting?
Yes — the solved outline is a closed coloring region, and the puzzle page includes a frame plus title just like the other coloring pages on this site.
