Queen

The Queen is a playable unit in Killer Queen.

Queens are the only unit in the game capable of capturing a maiden/gate for their team to use, which is done simply by touching it. These may change hands any number of times over the course of the game.

Queens and Warriors are the two playable units capable of actively attacking other units. Drones may only defeat other units by riding the giant snail god into them, or by becoming warriors in a maiden.

If the Queen is killed three times, it will result in a Military Victory for the opposing team.

The Queen is the only playable character in the game that may dive. The dive is achieved by pressing down on the joystick, a move that is unavailable to drones and warriors, due to their joysticks being restricted to horizontal input.
