A little about this puzzle
Queens is pure logic. The board is split into coloured regions, and you need exactly one star in every row, every column and every region, with no two stars touching, not even diagonally. Every puzzle has a single answer that can be reasoned out without guessing.
Easy, Normal, Hard and Expert each hold 1,000 levels, growing from 4×4 to 9×9. The daily challenge is a single 10×10 that the whole world solves on the same day. A wrong star costs a life, and three lost lives restart the level; when unsure, switch on Guess mode to try ideas safely and clear them in one tap.
A few good questions
Do I ever need to guess?
No. Every puzzle has a unique solution, so there is always a cell you can decide with logic. Guess mode just lets you try something safely.
Is there a time limit?
No countdown. The timer only records your time for you.
How does the daily challenge work?
One expert 10×10 board per day, chosen by the date, so everyone solves the same board on the same day.
