I don't understand why I can't place two kings in "adjacent diagonal" position when they're in two different regions. Something like: ..k.. .k... Rules state

Rules state they must be in different regions, row and column. No mention of diagonal or adjacency.
- billforsternz 1y agoI agree, I had the same problem.
- codebje 1y agoMaybe it wasn't there when you played, but rule 6 states kings cannot attack each other; chess kings can move one square in any direction. Without this rule the puzzle isn't solvable by logic, only trial and error.
- deepakrb 1y agoAh this rule is mentioned under “Kings cannot attack each other” (in the chess sense, two Kings cannot be diagonal from one another). I’ve updated the rule to make this a little clearer
