About the Game

Over 100 Levels of Puzzle Platforming Fun


Escape Lizards is simple to learn, hard to master. The aim of the game is simple: Tilt the platforms to roll your lizard egg from the start point to the finishing bell at the end of the level.

However, things are never as simple as they seem! Soon you'll need to master hopping, world-flipping, and other gameplay mechanics (all fully tutorialized) over increasingly complex and tricky challenges!

Ready for a new Challenge?


Using either an XBOX controller or a keyboard, you'll guide your precious egg over ramps, slopes, twists and turns to get to hit the finishing bell across even the most trecherous of levels. As you improve, you'll progress through the worlds and be able to complete harder challenges and tougher puzzles. As well as simply manipulating gravity, you'll use a plethora of secondary abilities to complete levels, such as hopping and world rotations, all tutorialized. Each level also has hidden vulture eggs to knock-off on the way too, allowing you to unlock over 20 new skins for the lizard egg.

Whether you're looking for a new challenge or simply want a game that won't back down from turning up the heat, Escape Lizards has what you're looking for!

  • Over 100 challenging and unique levels
  • Original platformer mechanics
  • Automatic Steam friend integration shows you friends' times for each level
  • 11 distinct worlds
  • 44 Steam achievements
  • Over 20 unlockable egg skins
  • Fully configurable controls, camera modes, and graphics settings (including FPS cap and FOV).
