Stuck on today's LinkedIn Queens? Three progressive hints come first, then the full solution — tap to reveal as much or as little as you want. Other games today: Mini Sudoku · Patches · Wend · Zip · Tango · Pinpoint · Crossclimb.

#883: 8 rows, 8 colors, 8 queens, and the usual rule that queens never touch. One region is a single cell, at row 1, column 2. In the finished grid 4 of the 8 queens sit on the outer edge.

Hints

Hint 1: where to start

The 1-cell blue region is a single cell, so its queen is a gift. That queen ends up in row 1.

Hint 2: a solid foothold

Row 1, column 2 takes the first queen; row 1, column 2 and the blue region are now done.

Hint 3: nearly there

Now count row 2: just 5 cells survive, and the queen is at row 2, column 6. Keep doing that row by row.

Solution

Tap any part to reveal it, or reveal everything at once.
