Frequently asked questions

Is it like LinkedIn's Queens?

Yes, it has the same rules. Here you can play as many boards as you like, in three sizes, and compete on time in the ranking.

Does every board have a single solution?

Yes. Every board is checked to have exactly one solution, so you can solve it with logic, no guessing.

Can I pause?

Yes. Pausing stops the clock and hides the board. It also pauses by itself if you switch apps.

Do I need to download anything?

No. You play in the browser, on your phone or computer. If you like, you can add it to your home screen like an app.
