LinkedIn Queens invite

What is a Queens invite on LinkedIn?

A Queens invite on LinkedIn is a challenge from a connection to play today's Queens, the daily logic puzzle, sent as LinkedIn's invite notification, usually right after they solved it. That is all it means: it opens the same free puzzle every player gets, so you can compare times. It is not a separate game or a paid feature, and the invitation lasts until midnight Pacific Time, when a new Queens arrives.

  • Free
  • Today's puzzle only
  • Nothing happens if you ignore it

LinkedIn Queens answer today →How to play Queens

An invite: a connection asks you to play today's Queens.

How a Queens invite works

  1. A connection solves it

    They place every queen in today's grid, and LinkedIn shows their time.

  2. They send it to you

    From the result screen, they share the puzzle with you as a challenge.

  3. You open the same Queens

    The invite opens today's grid, the one every player gets. Place the queens as usual.

  4. You compare times

    When you finish, you see who was faster, and you can pass it on yourself.

Do people invite you to play Queens on LinkedIn?

Yes. A Queens invite comes from a connection who played today's Queens and shared it from the result screen. It reaches you because someone you know chose to send it, and nothing happens if you do not play.

What is Queens on LinkedIn?

LinkedIn's daily logic puzzle: a grid split into coloured regions, with one queen in every row, column and region, and no two queens touching, not even at a corner. Everyone gets the same puzzle each day (how to play Queens).

Is it safe?

An invite is LinkedIn's own feature. If a message looks odd, check that it comes from someone you know and that it opens linkedin.com/games. A Queens invite never asks for a payment or a password.

When it runs out

The invitation is for one day's puzzle. At midnight Pacific Time it stops being playable and a new Queens replaces it (when do LinkedIn games reset).

Invites in the other games

The same challenge comes for other LinkedIn games: the Zip invite ("You've got an invite"), the Wend invite and the Patches invite.
