## What is Qix Galaxy?

Qix Galaxy is a Sci-fi Space Adventure arcade game based on the classic QIX game by TAITO.

Captain Gordon finds himself on the super-modern research spaceship NGC-123 in a galaxy far, far away. He is on a mission with very peaceful goals: mapping the galaxy, looking for Dark Matter. Unfortunately he finds much more than he was looking for...an unknown plasma force that's not only a threat to his ship but to the planets in the galaxy as well.

Nevertheless he continues his mission of mapping the galaxy while avoiding the plasma forces flowing through each planetary system. In doing so, he notices the plasma avoids the regions he's mapped. Something about his propulsion system is immune to these energy forces, these so-called "QIX", and drives them away.

But the QIX are draining the energy of inhabited planets, who send SOS signals as a last desperate act before time runs out. With no one else in this remote galaxy, Captain Gordon is their last and only hope. But what can one research scientist and his AI companion Aida do against those overwhelming odds?

Can you save the planets in time? Can you solve the mystery of the QIX? Can you save the galaxy?

### 3/5 — Good concept but...

*2020-06-08*

Please fix the following:  
1) In-app purchases should get rid of ads.
2) Give us the option of listening to the 1991 NES Qix soundtrack!!!!

### 1/5 — Forgot to add “advertising after 2 min of play”

*2020-05-03, version 1.1.35*

Uninstalled.

### 5/5 — Qix (kiks) has returned

*2016-04-05*

It has been a very long time since I've played this game. Qix (kiks) is one of those puzzles that will keep you playing for hours. I remember the NES version of the game that came out in 1993, and played it. If you like Qix (kiks) then I would highly recommend it.

### 4/5 — Future Qix in Space

*2015-09-14*

Clever story variant on the Qix gameplay concept where the primary goal is to isolate/capture the planet instead of capturing a majority of the playfield.  But capturing most of the screen and killing all on screen enemies is required to earn stars to unlock additional levels.  Thus the game challenges you to earn coins to upgrade your ship (no longer a cursor as in the original) to outmaneuver turrets & fireballs and plasma.  The QIX itself is, unfortunately, relegated to boss status only.  Performing well ok levels earns stars to unlock sanctioned sections of the map.  Once you get the hang of it, the gameplay can get addictive and fun... then it all comes to an end.

The in-game characters and story add little to the gameplay, especially the ending.  But the puzzle challenge of several of the levels is worth your time, if you're a fan of this Taito arcade classic.

### 5/5 — Qix: Galaxy

*2015-08-15, version 1.0.33*

I love the original and this is a fun take on it.  They did a great job of spicing it up without merely copying Qix from the 80s or just simply making the original creators roll over in their graves.  Great job!

### 5/5 — Great game

*2014-05-02*

Great game by a great studio!

### 5/5 — Fun!

*2014-05-01*

This is a fun game! Never played the original Qix game, but have heard of it... Glad to know what it's all about now. I'm no gamer, so this simple style of game - almost like a puzzle - is appealing to me. I could easily play this all day instead of getting any work done! And I like the tutorials... I need that sort of thing. :)

### 5/5 — Fun update to an old favorite of mine

*2014-04-23*

The gameplay is similar to the original, with some power ups, challenges and different objectives to add variety to the oldschool gameplay. The graphics look quite nice as well, especially on an iPad.

### 4/5 — Excellent

*2014-03-30, version 1.0*

Please address the refilling of lives issue! 
 I wait and I wait, with the app closed, and I'm still at 0 lives. This is frustrating. I shouldn't have to keep the App open the WHOLE time.

### 5/5 — Nice!

*2014-03-25, version 1.0*

Very nice graphics and music, great space themed game, but rather challlenging.
