Today’s puzzle: Friday, October 9, 2026
Every day there is one new Queens puzzle on Puzzledoku, and it is the same for everyone in the world. Find the eight hidden puppies: one in each row, one in each column and one in each color region, with no two puppies touching, not even diagonally. The date follows UTC, which may differ from the date on your device. The new board appears after the scheduled daily rebuild and deployment finish, rather than changing instantly at midnight.
Come here for the latest challenge, or open the puzzle details and solution for Oct 9, 2026. That dated page keeps this board available after the next daily puzzle arrives.
Build a streak by solving puzzles on back-to-back UTC dates. When you are done, tap Share to share your time and a link to this exact board without spoiling the answer. Only your first solve for a date counts toward your record, but you can replay it as often as you like.
Every daily puzzle has exactly one solution and can be solved with logic alone. If you get stuck, the Hint item explains the next step in plain words. New to the game? Read how to play first, or warm up with thelevels.
Dates use UTC. Your streak grows when you first solve the next date after your latest recorded solve; skipping a date starts a new streak. Solving an older archived date does not backfill the current streak. Records stay in this browser and do not transfer when you change devices or clear storage.
