Super Qix

This needs some investigation. Discuss ideas and findings on the talk page. Specifically: What are the differences in the Japan/World v1.0, 1.1, and 1.2 sets listed in MAME?

Super Qix is the third installment of the series, featuring a complete graphic overhaul. The gameplay is the same, except now you have to reveal the figure behind the colored panel rather than coloring a black one.

Regional Differences#

Title Screen#

Japan/World	US

Since Romstar (like many Taito games) published the game in the US, "All Rights Reserved" is instead "Licensed to Romstar for U.S.A." and the Taito logo is shifted up a few pixels.

Qix#

Japan/World	US

The Qix is different between versions: a gremlin in the Japan/World version, a samurai head in the US one.

Misc.#

• In the US version, the Castle (level 1) and Dragon (level 4) are switched.
• To draw, you have to hold the draw button and use the joystick to move in the direction you want in the Japan/World version. In the US version, there is no draw button, and you only use the joystick to draw.
• In the Japan/World version, when you lose a life, the gremlin (Qix) will taunt you for a few seconds. In the US version, the samurai head won't do the same and you simply resume the level.
