If I hear another person say: “connecting the dots…..”

That doesn’t take away from the elegant simplicity of this game. Really all you need to do is complete the board with dots. What could be simpler? What could turn out to be more frustrating? And it’s still a lot of fun!

Actually, “connecting the dots” IS marginally better than the phrase “at the end of the day,” which, thankfully, seems to have faded into the night!
