QYX

The classic arcade game QYX has finally made its way to the venerable Atari 2600, thanks to the arcade experts at Champ Games! Your goal in QYX is to draw lines to complete rectangles that close off portions of the initially empty playfield. Once you have closed off a sufficient percentage of the playfield, you can then proceed to the next level!

This version of QYX accurately reflects the original arcade game, but also adds new features, including two-player co-op game modes! These modes allow two players to enjoy QYX simultaneously! And there's a new Challenge Mode that, along with being the most difficult mode, adds two new features to QYX: POWER-UPS and the SUPER FUSE!

Gameplay

Your objective in QYX is to claim as much playfield as possible, using your MARKER to draw STIX without getting in the path of the spinning QYX, all the while avoiding the traveling SPARX. A minimum percentage of playfield must be claimed before moving on to the next screen.

Guide your MARKER around the grid and claim enough of the open area to move to the next level. Watch out for the unpredictable QYX and the SPARX that move along the grid, as they will destroy your MARKER on contact.

While drawing STIX to claim an area, don't stay still for too long, or the FUSE will be in hot pursuit! Be sure not to corner your MARKER in a SPIRAL DEATH TRAP!

Claim enough of the playfield to advance to the next level, where you'll encounter more QYX and faster SPARX.

Do you have the skills to clear all 99 levels and add your name to the list of Ultimate QYX Kickers?
