Official trailer for Project Entropy

Project Entropy is a free-to-play sci-fi strategy game from FunPlus International AG, and yes, you can play it on a Windows PC without an emulator. The official site offers a PC launcher alongside the Android and iOS apps, and the game is also on Steam. Last checked: October 3, 2026.

Some links on this page are offer links. If you use one, LevelRig may earn a commission. It doesn't change what we recommend: the official client comes first because it protects your account.

The short version: use the official PC client or Steam, and set a spending limit before you log in. The rest of this guide covers what the game is, what we could and couldn't confirm, and whether it deserves your time.

What Is Project Entropy?

FunPlus describes it as a strategy game where you control mechs. The official site's tagline is "Strategy RTS game where you can control Mechs." The Steam page adds the rest: you command alien civilizations across space, build bases, conquer planets, assemble hero fleets, and fight PvP and PvE battles. It lists Windows, mobile, and cross-platform multiplayer.

The App Store listing describes the same loop: recruit heroes and creatures, upgrade skills, and fight over an open-world map in alliances. FunPlus International AG is both developer and publisher on Steam and the App Store.

One naming trap: Steam also has a game called Entropy, a turn-based RPG in Early Access from Lovely Hellplace and DreadXP. It's unrelated. The game in this guide is Project Entropy.

Is There an Official Project Entropy PC Version?

Yes. The official site lists a PC launcher download next to Google Play, the App Store, and an APK. The Steam version launched on April 16, 2024 as a free-to-play title with in-app purchases. The App Store listing shows version 1.48.0 as of October 3, 2026, so the mobile app is still being updated.

For this one, the official pages don't say how a mobile account moves to PC (more on that below). Plan for that gap.

How to Play Project Entropy on PC

Windows is the only platform we found for the PC version. We saw no Mac client on the official site or Steam.

If you already play on your phone:

  1. Open the game's account or settings screen on your phone and note which login your account uses. This is the step people skip. Switch devices without it and your progress may have nowhere to go.
  2. On your PC, get the official PC client or the Steam version.
  3. Sign in with the same login. If your base and heroes don't appear, stop and contact FunPlus support before you spend anything.

If you're new to the game:

  1. Install the official PC client.
  2. Check the account or settings screen for a way to link a login. We found no official page on how this works, so confirm it before you rely on it.
  3. Decide your spending limit now, and write it down.

If you do these out of order and start a fresh account on PC, you could end up with two accounts and no clear way to merge them. We found no official page describing a merge.

Mistakes That Cost Progress

  • Starting a second account on PC before checking that your mobile login works there.
  • Spending first, linking later. Confirm which account you're on before you pay.
  • Downloading from a random site. Use the official site or Steam. Third-party "guide" sites rank well for this name, and we can't vouch for their downloads.
  • Skipping the spending cap. The App Store lists purchases from $0.99 up to $99.99, including a $29.99 battle pass and a $9.99 subscription perk.

Project Entropy on PC: Official Client vs. Steam vs. Emulator

Official PC client Steam Android emulator
Who makes it FunPlus FunPlus, listed on Valve's store A third party
What you run A desktop build A desktop build The mobile app in a virtual phone
Price Free to install Free to play Free, but the game's purchases still apply
Extra software The launcher Steam The emulator

Same advice as every game in this cluster: when an official PC version exists, use it. An emulator adds a layer and an extra account. Our pillar guide lays out what to do when a game has no official PC client.

Project Entropy PC System Requirements

FunPlus publishes minimum requirements on the Steam page. We found no recommended specs, and no spec sheet on the official site.

Minimum (per Steam)
OS 64-bit Windows 7 SP1
CPU Intel Core 2 Duo E6400 or equivalent
RAM 4 GB
GPU GeForce GTX 460 or better
DirectX Version 10
Storage 8 GB
Network Broadband connection

These are modest numbers, and they come from the publisher. We didn't run the game, so we can't tell you how it performs on any given machine.

Is Project Entropy Worth Playing in 2026?

It's a fair try if you like base-building strategy and alliance play, and you're comfortable with a free-to-play economy. The setting is fun on paper: alien heroes, mechs, planets to conquer.

The reception is mixed. As of October 3, 2026, Steam shows a "Mixed" rating, 52% positive (139 of 267 reviews). On the App Store, the game showed 4.4 out of 5 from 1,400 ratings as of the same date. In the App Store reviews, players praised voice acting and alliance play. Critics said progression is steep for free players, that planet conquests reset progress, and that support is slow.

The Steam community page leans more negative. Players there complain about heavy pay-to-win progression and say the store ads don't match the game. Those are player opinions, not verified facts, and they're worth reading before you spend.

The money, plainly. The game is free, but it's built around purchases: coins, a battle pass, a subscription perk, and bundles that the App Store lists up to $99.99. If competitive alliance play is the goal, expect pressure to spend. If you set a limit before installing, you stay in control. If you don't want to spend at all, expect a slower climb.

Our take: try it free, keep the cap, and read recent reviews before any purchase. If you want space strategy with a Star Trek license instead, read how Star Trek Fleet Command handles accounts on PC, another space strategy game with an official client.

What We Couldn't Verify

  • Account transfer. We found no official page explaining how a mobile account links to the PC client or Steam.
  • Recommended specs and performance. Only minimum requirements are published, and we didn't run the game.
  • Current store prices on PC. The $0.99-$99.99 range comes from the App Store listing, not from the PC client or Steam.
  • Update cadence. The App Store shows version 1.48.0, but the news section of the official site we loaded appeared to end at version 0.9.6. We couldn't reconcile the two.
  • Steam review score. It moves. Check the live page.

What Players Say

Two recent reviews from the game's Steam page, read in October 2026. They're individual opinions.

  • A short thumbs-up. One Steam player recommended it with "Great graphic and lots of actions."
  • A pay-to-win complaint. Another player didn't recommend it: "the heavy pay-to-win progression turns galactic domination into less of a strategy contest and more of a competition between wallets."

The praise is about looks and pace, the complaint is about money, and that fits the "Mixed" score above. Enjoy the visuals for free, and don't let a tough alliance fight talk you into a purchase.
