This game is for you if: you really love Chrono Trigger or FFVI (especially their plot-gameplay structure), or you're a huge fan of the causality-across-space-and-time-trope. There's a lot of good things to say about Quartet, but primarily that it has the indie quality of wearing its inspiration on its sleeves, taking the best parts of its inspirations, and putting a small unique twist on it. As mentioned above, this game is clearly inspired by Chrono Trigger and FFVI specifically, as its a story dealing with long-term consequences among a fractured world. Gameplay is... solid. This will not blow anyone's mind mechanically. It is a good old-fashioned turn-based JRPG. Turn order on the side, health and mana (AP) bars, four elements along with various physical elements, the works. What Quartet adds is that, when you have your full team of 8, you can swap between team members without penalty, with that team member immediately going after being swapped in. This allows for all 8 characters to be easily used in any battle, despite only 4 being active at one time. There are obvious combinations among characters and skills, but once you discover what's the best combination, it never stops being the best combination. This is both good and bad, as it lets you focus on the main highlight (the story) but also makes non-boss encounters relatively trivial. The story is a standout here. Like other reviews have mentioned, there is a deliberate attempt by the devs to cover some fairly mature topics. Issues like who deserves power and why, long-scale racism and its effects, and how evil can be incredibly banal. There's nothing groundbreaking here in what is being said, but I believe there's a proper amount of deference paid to these topics and the story and characters are all the better for it. There is some humor here and there (especially in the beginning), but the game eventually asks you to pay attention to the world and its inhabitants and what they go through. Plot progression is probably the closest tie to Chrono Trigger and FFVI. The story flows nearly nonstop for several hours then hits a point of sudden open-world. Its at this point the game tests you on whether you've been paying attention or not to what's been happening, as there are sidequests for each of the 8 characters with relatively minor signposts on how to get there. It doesn't hold your hand, but expects you to remember which characters had ties to where. Overall I deeply enjoyed my time with Quartet. Its very successful at what it is trying to do (emulate SNES-style JRPGs) while still managing to add modern flair and gravitas. I think most people will take a look at know if its for them. If you have even an inkling that you might enjoy this, please consider picking it up. Completion: 25hrs to 100% the game
Very fun, classic SNES-style RPG. Doesn't waste any time, feeling very similar in pace to Chrono Trigger in that way. Editing simply to double-down on my recommendation for this game. Super fun, done in about 20 hours, really nails all the stuff about story-focused RPGs that makes them tick. Absolutely, highly recommend.
Managed to pretty much 100% this in a relatively breezy 22 or so hours. Actually a fair amount of optional content and secrets at the end, rarely do I bother nowadays but it all felt rewarding including that dungeon they added post launch so I just kept going. The four chapters to start the game are much talked about and though they are stop and start it felt logical for the setup and where it goes from there. I enjoy the differences between the four chapters where they come from different places with different language, culture, and tech. Most importantly their philosophies on the world being so different.
What an absolute treat this game turned out to be. I'm a little sour on nostalgia-bait Kickstarter JRPGs: they either get a little far up their behinds with the mechanics to the point that the micromanagement aspect begins to outshine the storytelling, which distracts you to the point that you can't really appreciate that story except in retrospect after you complete the game (Chained Echoes, and to some degree Expedition 33), or the game is so absorbed by the classics it is trying to emulate that any actual personality just gets suffocated (Sea of Stars or Eiyuuden Chronicle). It's rare to find a game that gets it right: something that combines solid plot and pacing, genuinely sharp character writing - these people feel real and distinct, and individually clever enough for me to believe they're capable of saving the world, in sharp contrast to the usual JRPG party - and mechanics that are deep enough to engage with and rewardingly build around but focused on making combat quick rather than dense. This was a game that was clearly made by people who haven't just played a lot of Golden Age JRPGs but have genuinely sat with them and excavated what worked and why from what they just loved because they were a teenager. 2025 was an absolute banner year for the JRPG format and Quartet stands tall among storied company. I am dead serious when I say that if you are a JRPG fan and you're only hearing about this game right now, it's entirely the fault of it coming out a few months after Expedition 33.
