About Quintet
Command your own starship with up to four friends across any device—Mac, PC, Linux, iOS, or Android—each taking specialized roles like Captain, Helm, Tactical, Engineering, or Science to work together seamlessly. Battle AI armadas or rival crews in dynamic scenarios that range from cooperative missions to 20-ship free-for-alls, with intuitive controls designed for newcomers and the flexibility to play solo or with any number of friends online.
You've always wanted to sit in a big captain's chair and shout, "More power to the shields!" and "Fire the torpedoes!" I have too, and this is why I built Quintet.
Quintet is a scifi cooperative, cross-platform, multiplayer, "crew" game where players work harmoniously to control the same ship. There are 5 roles: Captain, Helm, Tactical, Engineering and Science. How successful you are will depend on how well you all work together. You can play Quintet for hours for free and enjoy 20 playable ships online. There are 5 additional ships available with an upgrade.
Truly multiplatform - No one is left out!
Mac, PC, Linux, iOS, and Android can all play together on the same ships and in the same missions. The Captain can be on an iPhone with a Tactical officer on a Linux box with an Engineer on an Android tablet with a Science officer on a Mac.
No friends? No problem!
Quintet has one, two, three, four and five player ships. All the different ship types can all play together in the same scenarios. Quintet plays over the Internet so you can all play together even if you can't be in the same room. Easily drop in and drop out any time.
Several game types
Quintet features lots of different scenarios for co-op and pvp game play. Work together to fend off a massive armada or have a 20-ship free-for-all. Upgraded version includes beloved game types such as Capture the Flag and King of the Hill (my hill is a polyhedron).
Always Fresh
I love working on this game. I update Quintet all the time. I'm constantly adding new features and new scenarios. Got an idea? Post your idea in the forum.
Intuitive controls
I wanted non-gamers to be able to play Quintet. I've simplified and streamlined the interface so you can drag in more friends of yours to play this crazy space game.
Control DMX and Philips HUE Lights
Get immersive! Quintet has a built in simple scripting language for controlling DMX lights and Philips HUE lights. You can trigger lights when you fire weapons or when the shields are hit.

What Steam players say
Recent verbatim reviews from Steam — separate from playze.io community reviews below.
Quintet is a cooperative space simulation game where players can staff starships with friends across multiple roles and species, offering both online and offline play options despite being officially abandoned. Players praise its unique multiplayer crew dynamics, accessible gameplay that scales in complexity, and the fact that it remains playable and free with active servers. The main criticisms center on simple graphics and some players feeling the game died before reaching its full potential, though many still find it worth playing given the cost-free entry point.

Another case of a really awesome amazing game that died too soon before it had a chance to realize it's true potential. While that may be common what isn't common is the fact that the game has been left in a playable state. Even though it's been officially abandoned it is now free to play, the servers are still online, you can play offline against bots, and there are peer to peer options to play with friends and family. It's an open world space sim where you and several of your friends get to staff a starship of your own and embark on an epic galactic campaign across the stars other ships manned by other players. There are several species to play with, each having their own racial bonuses, and each having ships ranging from one person scouts to five man dreadnaughts. Playing one of the larger ships with a full crew is all about communication and working together like a well oiled machine. It's a great amazing game all that it's missing is players to play it. I'm leaving a positive review in hopes spreading a good word about this underappreciated hidden gem. https://steamcommunity.com/sharedfiles/filedetails/?id=30422529451 found this helpful
Игра 'Quintet' предлагает уникальный опыт головоломок, основанный на размещении разноцветных блоков пентамино на игровом поле. Простота правил обманчива – быстро становится очевидно, что достижение высоких уровней требует стратегического мышления и пространственного воображения. Сначала, механика кажется простой и расслабляющей, но с продвижением, игра превращается в настоящее испытание для мозга. Ограниченное пространство вынуждает тщательно планировать каждый ход, а неудачное размещение одного блока может фатально повлиять на дальнейшее развитие партии. Графическое оформление минималистично, но приятно глазу. Цвета подобраны таким образом, чтобы блоки хорошо выделялись на фоне игрового поля, что облегчает визуальное восприятие. Звуковое сопровождение ненавязчивое и хорошо подходит для создания спокойной атмосферы, необходимой для концентрации. 'Quintet' – отличный выбор для тех, кто любит сложные головоломки и ищет игру, которая поможет скоротать время и одновременно потренировать мозг. Это элегантная и захватывающая игра, которая затягивает на долгое время. Минусом может показаться отсутствие сюжетной линии или каких-либо дополнительных режимов, но основная механика настолько…
