- TRIVIA -

Twin Qix was released in January 1995.

Only one Japanese prototype board is known to have been manufactured.

The game forbids the initials 'SEX' on the high score table. If you try, it gets changed to 'H !'. In Japanese 'H' is often used as a shortening of the word 'hentai', meaning pervert.
