Quartet is a run-and-gun action game released by Sega for the arcade in 1986. Up to four players can team up simultaneously to fight through a space colony overrun by space pirates. Each player takes control of a distinct characterโJoe, Mary, Lee, or Edgarโeach equipped with their own unique weapon. The goal of every stage is to clear out enemies, defeat the boss, secure the exit key, and escape before time runs out.
How to Play
In this side-scrolling shooter, you must navigate the level to find the boss holding the key to the exit door. You can move, jump, and shoot your way through hordes of enemies that spawn from portals. Use the default arcade controls in your browser (typically Arrow Keys for movement, Z/X for jumping and shooting, and Enter to start). Collect jetpacks for flight and other power-ups to increase your firepower and speed.
Tips
- Pay attention to monster generators; focus your fire to destroy them so they stop spawning endless waves of enemies.
- Use your jetpack power-ups wisely to bypass difficult platforming sections or safely rain down fire on bosses.
- Cooperate to survive: each character’s weapon behaves differently, so learn their range and spread to control the screen effectively.
