Entropy Merges JRPG Tactics with Dark Fantasy Horror

27 Aug 2025

Entropy, an innovative tactical RPG developed by Lovely Hellplace, invites players to navigate a nightmarish realm, where turn-based strategy battles meet chilling dark fantasy. Inspired by the eerie aesthetics of Dread Delusion, Entropy artfully replaces the Morrowind-esque real-time action with tactical turn-based combat. Here, players command a party of up to six characters, each contributing unique abilities to the strategic mix.

Exploring Draenog

The journey begins in the town of Draenog, where a demonic incursion disrupts a stage performance, leaving players armed with little more than a wooden prop sword. From this humble beginning, an expansive world map unfolds, challenging players to halt the nightmarish spread, one battle at a time.

Players will explore diverse towns, forge relationships with the locals, gather essential resources, and strategize to overcome formidable foes. The game's combat system draws inspiration from beloved classics like PS1-era Final Fantasy and Dragon Quest. With character portraits and turn indicators reminiscent of Final Fantasy X, the battles feel both nostalgic and refreshingly new.

Strategic Battles

Should any team members fall in battle, players have the option to hire mercenaries, adding an XCOM or Wartales-like element to the game. However, maintaining the original party's survival not only deepens player attachment but also enhances their characters' stats and perks over time.

Scheduled for release on Steam in 2026, Entropy has already started garnering attention from strategy enthusiasts and dark fantasy aficionados alike. Available for wishlisting, the game promises an engaging blend of rich storytelling and tactical depth, offering a compelling addition to strategy RPG libraries.
