Position created by @RALRAL3333
Description: In this custom position, there are two queens on the board, but both of them are trapped by pawns. Develop pieces and sacrifice as little as possible to free up your queen, then use it to checkmate your opponent! There are many strategies of freeing the queen, like just sacrificing a rook right away, but you can find yourself down material if your opponent is more efficient or if they pick up loose pawns and free their queen without a sacrifice! Be vary of pawn promotion threats and surprise moves (hint hint)
