Skip it if you…
Saves you a refund- Players seeking a grounded story may find the ancient knights, lizards, and spaceships too fantastical.
- Players looking for a varied range of objectives may find the focus on collecting items and destroying lizard bases limiting.
- Players seeking survival crafting or life simulation systems may prefer games centered on those activities.
Our take on House of Lizards
The game focuses on missions involving collection and base destruction across six locations. That concentrated structure gives less space to the survival crafting or life simulation systems found in other games.
What is House of Lizards?
Play as an ancient knight who goes undercover in lizard territory to gather intelligence, return manuscripts to base, and destroy lizard bases.
The game has four main locations and two bonus locations: a forest camp, Lake Baikal, Mars, Nibiru, Saint Petersburg, and a winter forest. Objectives include collecting 5 ancient manuscripts and drinking 18 cans of Baikal Water. Choose from five knights, and call other named characters to assist. The game features more than 15 lizard species and more than 15 cutscenes, including bonus scenes. Ancient Slavic spaceships, music, and sound effects are also part of the game.
