Queens Puzzle
Place one queen in every row, column and coloured region without touching another queen.
Place one queen in every row, column and coloured region without touching another queen.
Learn the rules of Queens and the deduction that solves it, then play today's board above.
Place exactly one crown in every row, every column and every coloured region, so that no two crowns touch, not even diagonally.
Small colour regions have the fewest options. Placing or eliminating there first often forces the rest.
When a crown goes down, cross out every square in its row, column and the eight around it. The remaining space reveals the next move.
If a region can only have its crown in one square, place it. Queens is fully solvable by logic.
Place one crown in every row, every column and every coloured region of the grid, and make sure no two crowns are next to each other, including diagonally. Solving means satisfying all of those at once.
Start with the smallest colour regions because they have the fewest options, mark every square blocked by each crown you place, and use pure elimination. When a region has only one possible square left, its crown goes there.
No. Every Queens puzzle can be solved with logic alone. If you feel stuck, look again for a row, column or region that has only one square left where a crown can legally go.
