Q*bert /ˈkjuːbərt/ is an arcade video game developed and published by Gottlieb in 1982. It is a platform game that features two-dimensional (2D) graphics. The object is to change the color of every cube in a pyramid by making the on-screen character jump on top of the cube while avoiding obstacles and enemies. Players use a joystick to control the character.
The game was conceived by Warren Davis and Jeff Lee. Lee designed the titular character based on childhood influences and gave Q*bert a large nose that shoots projectiles. His original idea involved traversing a pyramid to shoot enemies, but Davis removed the shooting game mechanic to simplify gameplay. Q*bert was developed under the project name Cubes, but was briefly named Snots And Boogers and @!#?@! during development.
Q*bert was well received in arcades and by critics, who praised the graphics, gameplay and main character. The success resulted in sequels and use of the character's likeness in merchandising, such as appearances on lunch boxes, toys, and an animated television show. The game has since been ported to numerous platforms.
Developed during the period when Columbia Pictures owned Gottlieb, the rights to Q*bert stayed with Columbia even after they divested themselves of Gottlieb's assets in 1984 and therefore, is currently a property of Sony Pictures Entertainment who acquired Columbia in 1989. In 2012's Wreck-It Ralph, Q*bert's appearance is credited to "Columbia Pictures Industries, Inc."
Gameplay
Q*bert is an isometric platform game with puzzle elements where the player controls the titular protagonist from a third-person perspective. Q*bert starts each game at the top of an isometric pyramid of cubes, and moves by jumping diagonally from cube to cube. Landing on a cube causes it to change color, and changing every cube to the target color allows the player to progress to the next stage. In later stages, each cube must be hit multiple times to reach the target color. In addition, cubes will change color every time Q*bert lands on them, instead of remaining on the target color once they reach it. Jumping off the pyramid results in the character's death.
The player is impeded by several enemies:
Coily - A purple snake that chases after Q*bert.
Ugg and Wrong-Way - Two purple creatures that run along the sides of the cubes
Slick and Sam - Two green gremlins that revert the color changes that have occurred.
A collision with purple enemies is fatal to the character. Colored balls occasionally appear at the top of the pyramid and bounce downward; contact with a red ball is lethal to Q*bert, while contact with a green one will immobilize the on-screen enemies. Upon dying, Q*bert emits a sound likened to swearing. A multi-colored disc on either side of the pyramid serves as an escape device from danger, particularly Coily. The disc returns Q*bert to the top of the pyramid, tricking Coily to jump off the pyramid if the snake was in close pursuit. This would cause all enemies and balls on the screen to disappear when Coily died.

I played the hell out of the 2600 Q*bert when I was a kid. Ah, memories.
Parker brothers were the absolute kings of arcade ports for the TI-99/4A, and their Q-bert was no exception. Limited cartridge size may have removed the cut scenes (and oddly for the TI, speech), but the gameplay is arcade perfect (and unlike so many other original ports, our hero has eyes!) Popeye, Frogger, Q-bert (and the not-released-until-recently Tutankham), if it's a TI-99/4a Parker Brothers port, you're playing one of the finest home versions produced during the original era. Sadly the catalogue was short.
Boy, looking back on the 2600 version, and it's surprisingly well made with the system's limitations. I had some fun playing this back in the early 80s.
Man, the NES one was the one I played when I was younger, never got to experience it in the arcades sadly but now I got it for my Gameboy Color with both original GB and the different GBC cart. Gotta mod my Gameboy Color soon so I can play it with light for On-The-Go-Q*Bertin'
given the limitations of the 2600, they did a pretty great job
I was surprised by the Atari 2600 version. It looks pretty good given the limitations of the system. I was also surprised by the DOS version. It does a good job of approximating the arcade version. The one that I disliked was the one for the Apple computer. I would have thought they would have done a better job.

The Apple computers didn't have sprites so everything had to be drawn pixel by pixel. Judging by the way it looks they also left out some steps needed to animate smoothly -> 1) copy the screen where q-bert is going to go 2) create a 'hole' in the background for q-bert to fit 3) copy image of q-bert into hole. The Apple version isn't creating a hole for the new q-bert image hence its all mixed up with the image of the blocks. The Atari here uses sprites but they could have used the same technique as the Apple without leaving that one step out because the Atari's 6502 chip ran 80% than the Apple's.
Man, the C64 version is rocking. The Amiga version is probably a bit too fancy for its own good! ;)

How did some of these early ports of Qbert slip under my radar? I got the Atari 2600 version Xmas 1983 and was disappointed that Coily/purple ball was the only enemy. No Wrong-Way and Ugg on the sides of the cubes takes away over 50% of the challenge. At least Colecovision and other platforms included one of them. If I remember correctly, the 2600 box artwork was changed and removed those two to avoid false advertising (Atari 5200 had Coily and just Ugg, go figure - no Qbert released on the better 7800 system). Also got the pointless Qbert board game that same Xmas. One of the three main early 80's video game mascots next to Pac-Man and Donkey Kong but it's more difficult to merchandise the hell outta him like in 1983 because whoever owns the copyright doesn't know what to do with Qbert aside from the 'Wreck-It Ralph' movie cameo.

awesome video, wasn't aware of all these versions :O
Me and a friend used to play the Dreamcast version way too much. Like everyday for months! By the end we could get all the way to the last level without dying once.
Q*Bert was one of my favorite games as a kid. I got the Atari 2600 version for my 9th birthday, but the controls were weird. You had to hold the joystick a certain way. I used to wish there was a Ms. Q*Bert. I saw a video of an unreleased arcade version that had Q*Bertha, but she was a big, ugly, purple stalker with a crush who tries to kiss him.
You know the Sega SG-1000 versions good cause when you complete a level it sounds like an alarm blaring out.
If I remember right, the Konami version is actually the sequel called "Q*Bert's Cubes". Arcade version didn't work out so hot, and the console ports fetch a good price these days still.
Very nice video. Thanks for posting this! Many good versions here. Impressed by the Ti99/4a version. C64 version looks good, (The sprites have eyes and the animation is good). too. Spectrum version had no debilitating colour clash, which was interesting. Coming slightly later in time the NES version is good - too - nice animation. Didn't know there was a Dreamcast version. That reminded me of 80s mainframe computer animations you had to show proof-of-concept.
I love the 1999 PC game. I have it, as you can see in on eof my recent video. The purple dudes sound creepy in the original Arcade version. Pretty cool how the voices are randomized.
Had no idea there was an Odyssey version of this, figured this would be way out of its weight class.
Nice videos! While the 2600 version here deserves props for looking/performing better than 90% of 2600 games at the time, the 5200 is REALLY well below average, as are the 5200, 7800, and 800 versions of Dig-Dug seen on the other series video (though the home-brew 7800 Q*Bert is nice). This is eye-opening for someone who grew up during those times, because given the crazy price points of those machines, I assumed they were fantastic (as a 1983 thirteen year-old with no internet and no idea where we'd be, performance-wise, in just 20 years). The sleek, angled facade of the 5200/7800 just LOOKED fast compared to the 2600. Very underwhelming results here and on Dig-Dug, especially when compared to the C-64, Amiga (wow) and ColecoVision. It just feels like Atari got by with the minimum amount of work on many of their 2600 games, because their name alone had such coverage during that period.

I think the designers were originally going to have the characters speak English, but the speech synthesizer they used was so unintelligible, so they decided to have it make gibberish sounds, and give the characters an alien language to speak. It accidentally worked in the game’s favor, and added to its unique quirkiness.

The Atari 400, 800, XE/XL, & 5200 were pretty much identical. only slight color variations.
Gaming History Source, in 2016, someone made a Sega Genesis/Mega Drive port of Q*Bert called Mega Q*Bert and it has a mode that is based upon the arcade/NES/FDS versions of the game. Surprisingly, it plays, sounds, and looks like a professionally made game.

Finally, in addition, there are also PS3, PS4/Pro Xbox 360, Xbox One/S/X, and maybe Wii U, Switch, and PC ports of a game called Q*Bert Rebooted, which also has the classic Arcade Mode in those games as well. Those games were made in 2007 for the PS3 and Xbox 360 and re-released for the other systems a year prior to the Sega Genesis/Mega Drive homebrew game, specifically, in 2015.
