How to Play Queens

Queens is a daily logic puzzle — place one chess queen on each row, column, and colored region of the 8×8 board, with no two queens adjacent (not even diagonally). The region layout changes every day and pure deduction gets you there: every queen is forced by the combination of row/column/region constraints. Tap a cell to place a queen, tap again to mark it empty (×), tap a third time to clear. Conflicts glow red in real time — no hidden check button. Unlike the LinkedIn original (1 puzzle a day, account required) or the ad-heavy queens-game.com, Wordle Global ships Queens with a built-in unlimited variant, a sixty-puzzle archive, leaderboards, and no ads during play. Free, no account, same puzzle worldwide.

How Queens works

Every day the board is partitioned into eight coloured regions of different shapes and sizes, seeded so the puzzle has exactly one valid solution. Your job: place one chess queen on each row, each column, and each region, with no two queens touching — not even diagonally (the chess king's-move rule).

Taps cycle through three states: blank → queen → × (ruled-out mark) → blank. The × is your deduction trail — cells you know can't hold a queen yet. Use them liberally; every placed queen blocks its row, column, region, and eight neighbours, and marking the blocked cells keeps you from re-solving from scratch.

Conflicts highlight in real time. When two queens attack each other — sharing a row, column, region, or touching diagonally — both cells pulse red. No hidden "Check" button, no penalty for trying — place freely and Queens tells you instantly. The board locks when all 8 queens are placed and nothing's red.

The puzzle is the same for every player worldwide — colours and region shapes translate into every language without any changes. Stats and the leaderboard are consolidated globally; the daily streak tracker counts solves across all languages equally. An unlimited mode layer rolls fresh puzzles from the same generated pool so you can practise without touching your daily streak.

Tips & Strategy

1
Sweep the small regions

Two-cell and three-cell regions collapse fast — often their queen is forced by a single adjacent constraint. Clear them first so the bigger regions have fewer candidates left.

2
Count per-row and per-column candidates

After a few placements, walk each row and column and count how many cells are still legal (not ruled out, not adjacent to a placed queen). Rows/columns down to one option give you free queens.

3
Adjacency is stronger than it looks

Each placed queen blocks all 8 neighbors. On an 8-region board, a queen on the border of a small region often forces a cascade through two or three other regions.

4
Mark corridors with ×

When a region stretches across a row or column that already has a queen, × the entire strip. You're not deducing anything new by leaving those cells blank — mark them so the board reflects what you already know.

5
Back out of conflicts, don't build on them

If two placements conflict, undo the newer one first and look one step up the chain. The earlier placement was usually the deduction that forced the later one — fix the earlier and the later re-solves itself.
