iQue@Home (Chinese name: 神游在线, literally "iQue Online") is a Windows application developed by iQue. Before the software was introduced, iQue Player owners could only purchase software and re-retrieve previously purchased games from an iQue Depot.
An iQue Player with a non-iQue@Home SKSA is incompatible with iQue@Home (via USB) unless its SKSA is updated. Compatible units display the iQue@Home logo at the top-left corner of the title screen.
