Now that the arcade favorite, Qix, has become a success in the Game Boy format, Taito is bringing it to the NES. To master this puzzler, you'll need quick reflexes and cool nerves.

Zehn Jahre sind für ein Videospiel ein geradezu biblisches Alter. Insofern ist es verblüffend, daß Qix mehr Spaß macht, als so manches "neue" Modul. Das muntere Abtrennen und Einfärben von Spielfeldbereichen hat immer noch einen gewissen Charme und verheißt Reaktionstests abseits der üblichen Ballerpfade. Langfristig hapert's ein wenig an der Motivation, denn auf Dauer ist die Spielidee doch etwas zu dünn. Beim Linienziehen gibt es zwar einiges an Spielraum für listenreiche Taktiken, doch von Level zu Level wird deutlich zu wenig Abwechslung geboten.

The Video Game Critic
While this edition of Qix is a fair approximation of the arcade game, I wasn't overly impressed. I don't like how the areas enclosed with the slow draw (worth twice as many points) are filled with the same colors as the fast draw. The music is good and the control is decent, but the graphics and colors are drab. This is not as fun as I remembered.
