How to play
One crown per row, column and colour zone, and no two crowns may touch. Tap once for ✕, twice for 👑.

One crown per row, per column and per colour, and none touches another, not even diagonally.
A full Easy grid
A real Easy grid (6 × 6), as you play it, and its solution. Same rule as the example above, only bigger.
Tips to get better
- Start with the smallest colour zones: a one-cell zone holds its crown.
- A zone that fits entirely in one row (or column) takes that row's crown: cross out the rest of the row.
- Around a crown, the 8 neighbouring cells are forbidden: mark them with a cross.
- If two zones fit in the same two rows, those two rows are reserved for them.
What this game trains
- Logical reasoning: deduce the solution from the rules, without guessing.
- Visuospatial perception: picture shapes, positions and paths.
