Love the game. But it crashes. The pattern I see is when you are running very closely parallel with another line and have to twitch over slightly to join it. I notice it more on higher levels, but that might be because I’m more frustrated to lose a high score.
Just like the arcade version. Fun and frustrating
This was my all time favorite game in the 80’s growing up when it was called QIX. This is a nice copy and the challenges get harder as you go along. However the screen control is glitchy and not precise. If you can get this MUCH MORE precise it would be great. I have many time seen where my line has been complete by 1/4 to 1/8” and the ball still knocks me out. This is very frustrating. I have also noticed on occasion that when you trap balls and then complete a section the ball does not go away it reappears in a different spot on the game board, this should be fixed. I was pleased to find this and hope you can look into those defects.
My favorite app of all time. Unfortunately, with the newest iOS, the game does not work very well after about level 20. I hope it’s updated. I like this better than the newer version.
I enjoy the game. The best substitute for Jezzball I have seen, but the game crashes so often that it’s frustrating to play. PLEASE FIX THE GAME.
I love this game, but at least 1/3 of the time, it crashes for no discernible reason. I’m playing in iPad, auto-update for at least a year and the situation continues to occur.
Fun game, but ruined by the actual experience. Not exactly the same as, but reminiscent of Qix. Sadly the current version freezes randomly while playing, and the result is a frustrating waste of time.
Fun. Reminds me of Volfied from many years back. It crashed a couple of times, but no big deal.
Controls aren’t as responsive as I want for sure.
If you're looking for a game similar to Qix (the old arcade game by Taito that was eventually ported to GameBoy), you'll have to keep looking. This isn't it. I thought it was, but discovered right away that this is much more akin to the old Windows 3.1 game, Jezzball. Fun in its own right, yes; but don't let the name fool you. There aren't multiple speeds on this game (remember, you would score higher in Qix if you filled in space using the slower speed, but it was riskier); there's only one speed. As you level up, the number of randomly floating balls increases…again, just like Jezzball. You can sometimes "trap" them, but more often, when you box in one of the floating balls, it reappears in another part of the screen. The game is really simple, but so much like Jezzball—and so UNLIKE Qix—that I lost interest after just a couple days. It's not "un-fun"; just not what I was looking for. Loved playing Qix on my GameBoy, and this isn't a replacement, sadly. 👎🏼 UPDATE: While the app runs smoothly on iOS 15, the controls are in definite need of help. They’re either non-responsive or hyper-responsive. I’ve lost a life by “death-spiraling” (remember that in the old Qix game?) into my own path in the few days I’ve played this on iOS15 than I ever did. Additionally, the game gets very NON-responsive at times, refusing to move when you swipe to move. This also results in loss of a life and makes this app quite frustrating. I’ll keep looking for something better…
Turn it on its side and it’s the same as the one on Apple TV
Simple fun game premise along the lines of old game boy game. However, it’s frustratingly glitchy and freezes and crashes. I’ve had so many times where I’ve had a great game going and going to set a new personal best and it freezes and game has to be restarted to play at which point you are back to level 1. I’ve miraculously made it to level 53 once, but typically I don’t get that far before it freezes.
Usually works well. Crashes now and then while playing.
Game is a lot of fun. It works great until higher levels but iPhone screen response lag does not provide sufficient control when game speeds up.
I love this game. Please fix the bug that freezes the game randomly.
Love this game, but it randomly freezes and needs an update to fix the bug!
The only thing I’d change is to nit have my avatar in constant motion around the screen edge.
If you cut a line too close the existing border it freezes.
Tired of going back to level one each time. But the game never crashes for me. So thats a plus.
Every time I make a line the game freezes starting over my progress
Overall is a fun. More often then not the game will freeze on level 18!!
Been using this app for a year and always enjoyed it. Since ios14 update, the app continues to freeze up and can’t play past level 15 due to that. Deleting as it’s frustrating. Too bad. Simple but fun game.
Nice game, but going back to level 1 every time gets old.
This is addictive and similar to the original jezzball game from the 90s.
This is one of my favorite old games, but it crashes at random rapid turns in the newer iOS. You have to close out, swipe up to clear the app, and then reopen app. Unsure it will ever be updated - but it was a great, simply great game.
As qix fan it’s great it could better like to have backgrounds to unlock not just solid color background
I can spend hours playing games like Bix. However it seems to hang about 1 in every 20 or so games.
It is a fun game. Just frustrated that you have to start over at level 1 every-time. I would get a 5 star if you could start at the last level.
Lots of fun, but it crashes too often.
As close to Qix as I have found. It’s fun, but I wish you wouldn’t have to go back to the first level after every game. I also hate that when you box a ball in, on some levels it pops out into an open area-it should be a dead ball.
Like others, I loved Qiz and this is close (but not as good). Still a lot of fun as a time waster. Biggest problem is when I am coming in parallel to an existing line and try to turn into it and I am just one pixel away, it hangs and you have to restart from beginning. Happens almost every series of games. Gotten to point where I have to jog out and back but then I get hit. And the fact that you have to start over is a little annoying too. Otherwise, solid 3 stars.
Great game very similar to Qix. This needs a killswitch if a ball gets hung. That way you don’t lose all your progress
Crashes just about every other time.
Addictive, fun, thinky, only reason for the three stars is that there is no use in collecting the golden balls as there is no option to use them for anything. The game leads you to believe that there is, but it leads to nothing.
Played this game occasionally for a year and it was fun. Over the last month game has been completely useless. I get through the first couple levels and the game crashes and completely closes app. When I relaunch it goes into a new game. Please fix!
I have been playing this on my phone for what I bet had been 10 years. I agree with the comments that I wish you could start past level 1. Thanks for all the fun over the years.
I love this game but the freezing as became worse please fix it
Been buggy lately. Freezes a lot mid game
Bix is a fun game that may be perfect for OCD people like me who love the clean geometry of a game of straight lines. My only quibble is the number of glitches that stop the game from working because after a freeze. No explanation, no way to escape, no continuation, a freeze that requires a force quit and start over. Otherwise....very addicting and fun.
Decent game... it’s not the old arcade game qix. Locks up on quick short moves.
I just got this game and I like it a lot! It is simple, yet fun. I’m pretty much hooked now. Would reccomend.😀
Veeeeery good game
Great time waster that badly needs an update for larger devices.
Really fun app and game. However as of mid 2018 it is now crashing just about every time I play and get past level 12-15. Frustrating. When it isn’t crashing, this game is Good for killing time. Reminds me of the old Qix game in GameBoy so big nostalgia points! Suggestion: let people start on level 10 or 20. The first 10 levels aren’t challenging at all.
Fun but every once in a while it freezes up on my iPhone X and I have to loose the score I was up to and start over, grrrr!
The game is great but for two things. The controls are not responsive. Too hard to control the direction. Two is the ads, have to kill safari to get back to the game. No Way to dismiss the ads have to kill the app then kill the ads
This is an excellent, addictive game but needs a serious update: the game crashes upon using your last life. An overhaul in looks wouldn’t go amiss either.
As far as simple time-wasters go, Bix is actually really fun. It’s a great way to pass time and trying to get further than before. However, this game is in major need of an update. While a visual overhaul would breathe new life into this game and make it feel like it isn’t stuck in iPhone OS 2 (where I first got it in the first few months after the App Store was first available) my current issue is that the game does not run well with iOS 11. With iOS 11, Bix crashes when you lose your last life. This means you cannot see your end score (unless you check it right before you get hit, which may be why you got hit at all) and you cannot contribute to your personal leaderboard. It also abruptly changes to a new level when you win, which can make it seem like you got hit until you realize you have a new color scheme that denotes a new level. Overall I still really like this game. It’s simple, addicting, and keeps bringing me back! I just wish the crashes would be fixed, and a design overhaul would be awesome to bring the game up to current-day app expectations. (The ability to make custom levels would be fun too, as well as multiple varieties of game modes or difficulty settings)
Ads pop up mid-game right as you're about to move screwing your timing completely and timing is EVERYTHING. Unless you BUY the ad-free version. Don't buy the ad free. Don't pay for this ransomware game. Don't even play it for free.
