Queens #884 has 8 regions on a 8×8 board, from 3 cells up to 30. Nothing is forced outright; the 3-cell orange region is the cheapest place to start. 1 of the queens sit a knight's move from the one in the row above; not a rule, just the shape of today's answer.
Hints
Hint 1: where to start
Look at the 3-cell orange region first: it has just 3 cells; try each one and watch what it rules out. Its queen lands in row 8.
Hint 2: a solid foothold
Place the first queen at row 8, column 4. That one move rules out 16 other cells.
Hint 3: nearly there
Row 7 is next, down to 5 options; the queen sits at row 7, column 7.
Solution
Tap any part to reveal it, or reveal everything at once.
