About Queens #813
- Queens #813 is played on an 8×8 grid with 8 colored regions.
- The smallest region covers 2 squares and the largest covers 35.
- 4 regions lie entirely inside a single row or column, which reserves that line for it.
- It has 8 regions, the same as the average of 8.0 across the previous 3 puzzles.
- The 2-square region in row 1 lies entirely in that row, so row 1's queen belongs to that region and the rest of row 1 is ruled out, including R1C3.
- Every open square left in the 6-square region containing R1C6 sits in row 2, so row 2's queen belongs to that region and the rest of row 2 is ruled out, including R2C1.
- The 2-square region in rows 5–6 lies entirely in column 8, so column 8's queen belongs to that region and the rest of column 8 is ruled out, including R2C8.
