Entropy

Entropy is a tactical, turn-based role-playing game by Lovely Hellplace, the studio behind Dread Delusion. A troupe of actors is pulled into a demonic invasion in the city of Draenog and grows into a band of mercenaries travelling through a slowly dying fantasy world.

The game combines a large world map and explorable towns with classic party RPG structures. Choices, gear, character development and the possible permanent loss of party members shape the course of the expedition.

Entropy entered Early Access on Steam on Aug 18, 2026. Lovely Hellplace currently plans about one year of Early Access before the content-complete version 1.0.

The story is designed in three acts. At the start of Early Access, Act 1 in the Gloaming Isles is fully playable. Further acts are set to add new regions, towns, dungeons, quests and characters.

Entropy is currently released natively for PC via Steam. Other platform versions are not officially confirmed and are therefore not being announced in advance.

The current Steam version is a single-player game and supports Steam Cloud and Family Sharing.

Combat is turn-based with a party of up to six characters. Enemies can be targeted on specific body parts to weaken them or disable certain abilities and weapons.

Between battles, the party explores towns, dungeons and smaller locations on a larger world map, collects gear, improves stats and unlocks new perks. Fallen party members can be replaced by recruited mercenaries.

Steam lists the minimum requirements as Windows 10, an Intel Core i3-2100 or AMD Phenom II X4 965, 4 GB RAM, a GeForce GTS 450 with 1 GB VRAM or a comparable AMD graphics card, DirectX 11 and 1 GB of free storage.

Entropy is set in a world that hasn't been broken by a single apocalyptic event but is slowly dying out. Humanity now lives only in scattered settlements, while dangerous creatures and demonic threats lurk between them.

The story begins in Draenog, where a theatre performance is interrupted by fighting at the city gates. From there, the journey grows into an expedition against the demonic invasion.

Party management is designed as a core system. Up to six characters can be part of the active party at the same time. If a party member dies for good, the journey doesn't end: new mercenaries can be recruited and added to the group.

With this, Entropy combines the loss of individual characters with ongoing party building. The group's makeup can change significantly over the course of a run, rather than staying fixed.

Entropy is developed by Lovely Hellplace and published by DreadXP. The studio previously made Dread Delusion and once again uses a deliberately retro-styled 3D aesthetic for Entropy, this time in a tactical party RPG.
