Queen Domination is a chess puzzle, in which your task is to find the minimal amount of queens that can cover the whole chess board, meaning that each square is either occupied or attacked by one (or more) of the queens.
The classic Queen Domination problem can be extended to any board size (larger than 3). In this small game you can test ten different board dimensions: 4x4, 5x5, 6x6, 7x7, 8x8, 9x9, 10x10, 11x11, 12x12 and 15x15. The minimal number of queens for each is as follows: 4x4: 2, 5x5: 3, 6x6: 3, 7x7: 4, 8x8: 5, 9x9: 5, 10x10: 5, 11x11: 5, 12x12:6, 15x15: 9. Let's see if you can place them on the board!
