Our take on Escape Lizards

Instead of moving a character through conventional platforming stages, play centers on tilting the terrain to roll an egg toward each level’s goal. Hopping and world rotation add further ways to alter its path, shifting the focus toward manipulating the environment.

What is Escape Lizards?

Guide a lizard egg by tilting platforms and rolling it from each level’s starting point to a finishing bell.

The game has over 100 levels across 11 worlds, with puzzles that introduce hopping, gravity changes, and world rotation. Tutorials cover the mechanics as challenges grow more complex. Levels also contain hidden vulture eggs to knock away; finding them unlocks over 20 egg skins. Automatic Steam friend integration displays friends’ completion times for each level, and the game includes 44 Steam achievements. Controls, camera modes, and graphics settings can be configured. Play is supported with an Xbox controller or a keyboard.
