Classic Game Room HD reviews QIX for Atari 5200 from 1982. Originally a Taito produced arcade machine, Qix is an awesome puzzle/sci-fi game which shares similar gameplay elements with Atari's Surround and the Tron Light Cycles. Qix is one of the few games which is not ruined by the awful 5200 controllers and packs a great deal of excitement into something so simple. Draw the block and score points before the Qix gets you! Watch out for sparks and try to complete as much of the board as possible before time runs out. This CGR review of Qix has gameplay from Taito's Qix on Atari 5200 showing game play in HD action.

  • This game and Robotron were my favorites on the 5200 back in the day. I got the QIX updated version for the Playstation system, but nothing beats the original.

  • This game taught me the word "threshold."
