The cursed school has a way out for solo players, but the store page itself frames the game as an escape meant for a group.

Hear the footsteps first, get out first

The chase announces itself: shock waves roll down the corridors and rattle the floor, warning that Quentin, the giant the game is named after, is somewhere close. You and your friends are locked inside a cursed school, and the way out comes together piece by piece, as you scrape up coins hidden along the way and trade them to a merchant for items that help you escape.

Notiwal handles both development and distribution, with no third-party label attached: a game listed as action, adventure and indie. The escape can be attempted alone, but the store description puts the spotlight on co-op, which brings as many as four people together, breaking out over the internet. It runs on Windows only.

A group sprint, not a story to sit with

Quentin Playtime is built for one short, noisy session rather than a long campaign: the cursed school exists to be crossed at a run, between scattered coins and a pursuer who shakes the floor with every step. Anyone with friends on hand finds the mode the store itself highlights, with four people at most loose in the school at the same time, trying to get out together. Anyone after a story to take in alone and slowly has little to work with here: the listing promises a chase, not a long narrative.
