This is one of the set of 4 interactive puzzles with specific targets. In each case You just need to relocate the pieces (with click-click method, no dragging supported) to a new position you think will meet the target of the puzzle. Then by clicking the "ChkIt!"-button the script will verify your solution. If the solution is wrong, you can just continue clicking the pieces to another position or "Reset" back to initial position. Finally, if you are out of ideas and need to see a solution, you just click on "GiveUp"-button. Be warned though, this control will activate only after approx. 15 minutes and at least one try from you.
The targets of these puzzles are as follows:
* Set eight queens so that no two or more of them are on the same file, rank or diagonal.
* Set the white pieces so that minimum number of empty squares are controlled by them.
* Set the white pieces so that maximum number of empty squares are controlled by them.
