Queens #917 has 7 regions on a 7×7 board, from 2 cells up to 28. The 2-cell region that includes row 1, column 1 never leaves row 1. A region that stretches along a single row or column locks that whole line for its queen.

Hints

Hint 1: where to start

The 2-cell region that includes row 1, column 1 sits entirely in row 1, so that row's queen must be one of its 2 cells. That queen ends up in row 1.

Hint 2: a solid foothold

Place the first queen at row 1, column 1. That one move rules out 13 other cells.

Hint 3: nearly there

Row 2 is next, down to 5 options; the queen sits at row 2, column 7.
