You can find plenty of them by googling for "brain teasers." I can't post any links as there are too many pages.Hope that helps. Hello Norma,

Thanks for motivating me to try harder.However, as the Wikipedia article states, the three-line solution is possible only if the dots have an area and are not infinitesimally small points - the "Christopher Columbus's egg puzzle" variation. But anyway, the instructions (and the dots from the post picture) leave enough space for one to create his own set of rules. I’ve finally discovered the three-lines solution, Michael!

You are right, the puzzle did appear originally with the instruction to draw four lines. But trust me, there is a three-line solution. @Titus-Armand: I stand corrected.

No one has to be dead. ;)@Michael: There are many solutions for the nine-dots puzzle, but the original puzzle was asking for a solution with 4 lines. I have found (on my own) only one other variation: one which implies drawing five lines. Three ...I don't know how, but it might just be possible. Thanks for the comments guys.
