Gameplay
The gameplay of Cubixx HD is based upon the classic arcade game Qix. The player controls a robot that fires a laser at a cube with the objective of erasing its sides. A variety of enemies and power-ups become available as the player progresses.
Reception
Reviews of Cubixx HD have been generally favorable with a Metacritic score of 77 out of 100. Kristan Reed of Eurogamer praised the title as the best reinvention of its antecedent Qix, while Joel Gregory of PlayStation Official Magazine (UK) called it "addictive", but frustrating strategy game for PSN.
