Overview
LinkedIn Queens #780 is the LinkedIn Queens daily for June 19, 2026. Queens is LinkedIn's logic puzzle: place exactly one queen in every row, column, and colored region on a 9×9 board, with no two queens touching—even diagonally. This page includes the live board, hint tools, and a full solution walkthrough. Difficulty: Hard. Estimated solve time: 6–10 min. Read the explainer sections below for strategy, or jump straight into play.
Solution
This Queens board is 9×9 with 9 color regions—one queen belongs in each row, column, and region. Queens cannot share a row, column, region, or any adjacent cell (including diagonals), so X marks are essential for ruling out illegal squares. Strong players scan for regions that pin a queen to a single row or column, then propagate those eliminations across the grid. The solution tab shows the completed board and explains why each queen placement is valid.
