Quartet Game

**"Quartet" for the SEGA Master System is a hidden gem that blends fast-paced action with a killer soundtrack—literally! Imagine a side-scrolling shooter where you and up to three friends (yes, four-player co-op in 1986!) blast through waves of enemies as a squad of futuristic heroes. Each character has their own unique weapon, adding a fun layer of strategy as you swap between laser whips, spread shots, and homing missiles.

What makes Quartet stand out? It’s like Gauntlet meets Contra, but with a synth-heavy soundtrack that’s pure ‘80s arcade energy. Though it started as an arcade hit, the Master System version keeps the chaotic fun intact, even if you’re flying solo. A little rough around the edges? Maybe. But if you love retro co-op chaos, this one’s a blast from the past worth revisiting."
