Qix is an action game that was first released in the Arcade in 1981.
+ Maddeningly addictive gameplay and there's plenty of catchy jingles that act as a reward for beating levels.+ Considerable amount of techniques you can employ to fill the screen, so you always have new strategies to try out.
+ Sparx are brilliantly devious, as they stop you from moving safely by chasing your lines around the playfield.
+ A and B buttons allow you to move fast or slow, with the latter adding risk-reward due to it gaining you more points.
- Light on gameplay options, and the sharp increase in difficulty could deter some players from sticking around.
- Missed opportunity to house a showcase co-op mode, as the included two-player option is turn-based only.
- While there's a huge number of levels, the core gameplay remains the same throughout, with no major shake-ups.
