I would disagree, your brain does a lot of pattern-matching, solving a jigsaw actually is brain intensive, but it's using brain skills that we don't usually associate with thinking, even though it definitely is.

You 'solved' the random connect-the-dots that came up first when I searched for one to make my point, well done

Sorry my bad. In my language (french) the word "puzzle" is exclusively used for jigsaw puzzle, for some reason when reading your comment my brain saw jigsaw :-D

Trick is you don't have to. Just start at any number and either go up or down, then go back and do the other direction when you finish the first one.
