Endless boards, two sizes

Most versions of Queens hand you one puzzle a day and stop. Here the puzzles are generated on demand, so New always has another one ready. Play one, play twenty — nothing runs out and nothing asks you to wait until tomorrow.

The buttons above the grid switch size. 7×7 keeps the whole board in view and is the place to learn the crown-and-cross rhythm. 8×8 adds a region and more awkward shapes, so the squeeze-the-region and no-touch deductions chain further before the board resolves.

The rules, and the three moves that solve most boards

The rules are three lines: one crown per row and column; one crown per coloured region; and no two crowns adjacent, including diagonally.

Squeeze the region. If a colour region only touches two rows, those two rows have their crowns spoken for — every other region must look elsewhere. Cross out the halo. Every crown you place kills the eight cells around it, which often leaves a region with a single legal cell. Count what is left. When a row has just one uncrossed cell, that is a crown, and the chain starts again.

Where Queens came from — and what else to play

The puzzle is a modern take on the classic “eight queens” problem — placing chess queens so none attack each other — with coloured regions and a no-diagonal-touch rule added to turn it into a solvable daily-sized deduction. LinkedIn’s version made the format popular; the generator here produces the same style of board.

Want the shared puzzle instead? Tap Daily on any board for the one everyone plays that day, with a streak to keep. And if you enjoy constraint grids, try Tango unlimited, Sudoku or Skyscrapers.

Queens Unlimited: FAQ

Can I play unlimited Queens here?

Yes. Every board is generated on the spot, so tapping New deals a brand-new puzzle as many times as you like, at either size. No daily cap, no sign-up.

What are the rules of Queens?

Place exactly one crown in every row, every column and every coloured region, and never let two crowns touch — not horizontally, vertically or diagonally.

Does every board have exactly one solution?

Yes — each generated board is checked for a unique solution reachable by logic alone, so you never have to guess.

What is the difference between 7×7 and 8×8?

The bigger board adds another colour region and another crown, which makes the regions more awkward and the chains of elimination longer. 7×7 is the friendlier place to learn.

Is there still a daily Queens?

Yes — tap Daily on any board for the shared puzzle of the day, the same one for every player, if you want a streak alongside unlimited play.
