QIX++ is a Xbox Live Arcade remake of the game QIX that now includes high definition graphics. The object of the game is to defeat the "QIX" using the user controlled marker to cut off more than 75% of the playing area. Once the 75% of the playing area is cut off, you will advance to the next level. During the game, the QIX will come in the form of waves, expanding triangle patterns and floating circles. Also hindering you in-game will be energy pulses along the edge of the playing area that will cost you a life if you come into contact with them. However you do get some help during play. If you cut off an area with a pick-up in it, you will get a helping boost. These come in the form of point boosts and limited invincibility. You have two stages to complete, each with eight sections to them. Multiplayer offers either local or online play where you can compete with up to 4 players or bots. The aim of QIX++ in multiplayer is identical to the single player element, only you are now racing to be the one that clears the board first.

Can you trap the elusive line of energy that's bouncing all around? Based on the coin-operated classic, QIX, this GBC sequel to the puzzle-based original offers similar gaming styles and a few welcome updates. In this take, you'll use a cursor to draw boxes on the screen, avoiding the Qix. If you can draw a compete box without the Qix touching its perimeter, that area of the screen will disappear and get you one step closer to advancing. Adding an element of story, QIX ADVENTURE casts you in the role of Speedy, a treasure hunter who's traveled to a mysterious island. Each level that you pass will help you in your quest to rid the island of all its strange creatures. Easy to learn but extremely difficult to master, QIX ADVENTURE is addicting fun for puzzle lovers and other gamers. Are you quick enough for Qix? Find out alone or against a friend.

This update to the original adds a two player mode and lots of new enemies and power-ups, including a statue.
