How to Solve Queens #911
Queens 911 uses a 7×7 board. Place queens at R1C6, R2C2, R3C7, R4C5, R5C3, R6C1, R7C4.
- Resolve the upper regions with queens at R1C6 and R2C2.
- Place the next two at R3C7 and R4C5. They occupy different columns and do not touch diagonally.
- The lower-left regions take R5C3 and R6C1.
- Finish the large remaining region with R7C4.
Each row, column and colored region contains one queen. Adjacent-row queens are separated by more than one column, so no queens touch.
