Tips
1. Keep your mouse button held down through the entire game. This will let you think more about doing the puzzles and less about clicking each time to start a new puzzle, Just keep it held down from the start and solve away!

2. Don't move your mouse too fast. If you move your mouse too fast while tracing the puzzles the red line will segment and you have a better chance of hitting the edges.

3. Stay calm. With something that's relatively difficult it can be easy to get quickly annoyed or frustrated. But when your frustrated you do things less efficiently, so try your best to stay calm and keep your cool.
[EDIT]
Just want to say that i'm very glad this guide has brought help to so many people for such a terrible achievement. Also shoutout to all of those who have shared their own help in the comments.

Good luck everyone, stay hydrated, and have fun achievement hunting!

For any other lefties out there with a right handed mouse, the way i got it was by using my little brother's drawing tablet. went from a max possible of 425 to a full 600 in less than half an hour.

It wasn't too bad. I didn't enjoy it, though. Got it on the 5th-6th try with 625 points. I didn't hold the mouse button down, but I can see that potentially helping.

1. Make an effort to keep your cursor inside the game. If you click outside, you will exit and need to re-enter.

2. It's really important to NOT try to go fast. Seriously, just take your time.

3. On the moving targets, just wait until they come to a stop before you make an effort to complete the maze. It's near impossible to complete it while it's moving, and trying to start while it's coming in or leaving is probably going to be a fail.

4. You can miss a few. If you mess up too bad, it's still probably worth going through the whole thing to get a little practice in. If you mess up too bad, just move on to the next one because it's already lost.

Point 3 helped the most. When I waited for them to stop it was pretty easy to complete enough to pop the achievement.

This is the WORST part of the game by far.

This achievement is a great way to develop carpal tunnel syndrome. 0/10 enjoyment. I wish the game would register lines so much better so you don't end up with a broken line. You will win this achievement, it just takes a lot of pain and time, but with practice, you will see improvement. At some point, I was able to (mainly) consistency get at least 450 points. I ended up with 575 points so many times. I finally got it though but really, it didn't feel worth it. Only do this achievement if your an extreme achievement hunter like me, insane, or you just for some reason really like this minigame.

For anyone struggling with this achievement, yes it is absolutely awful. What helped me was lowering my mouse dpi and holding down the button for the entire game. It took me 4 hours straight of awful practicing. You really have to learn muscle memory for all the segments especially 2 and 3. Learning control and honing in on it was the hardest part. Also, don't stand too close to the TV or else your character might turn and you'll lose your center of focus. I can't count how many times I lost because the line just didn't register for a second leaving a gap. I swear my fingers are crying right now.

anyone seriously trashing the game over this minigame clearly didn't get the joke. it's a stab at the last game you do in The Witness, which is a nightmare to beat. it has so little to do with the rest of the game that it feels out of place, just like this one.
