1st Official Playtest on March 28th, 2026 at 5:00 PM CDT
Playtest Checklist
Quark is a computer game. It’s entirely web-browser based and requires no downloads. You will simply connect to the url: quark-game.vercel.app/ to play!
It’s not really meant for mobile — so play from a computer with a keyboard and mouse if you can. You will learn that Quark is a fun, pro-social space exploration role-playing game for all ages.
-
A playtest is a gathering of players of the game to test out features and give feedback. Think of it like a digital taste test.
The game is still pre-release. It will have bugs, missing features, and broken mechanics. But there will be enough gameplay that you should be able to try it out and give feedback.
-
You’ve already done the hardest part! One day before the playtest, you will receive a pass code and a set of instructions via email. The instructions will cover what to pay attention to, take note of, and leave feedback on as you play. Nothin’ heavy , just be prepared to have fun!
-
Come to the discord first! That’s the best place to be. You can chat with us before, during, and after the playtest there. The game is already live at quark-game.vercel.app/ but you will need your pass code to get in.
-
Get ready to have some fun! And make sure you check everything off the Official Readiness Checklist below.
