You die if the Qix touches any uncompleted Stix or if your marker is touched by any of the “Sparx” – enemies that traverse all playfield edges except uncompleted Stix. There is no defence against the Qix or Sparx (that is, no [[smart bomb]] or anything like that) and you must out-maneuver them in order to survive.
