About Escape Lizards
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

Recent verbatim reviews from Steam — separate from playze.io community reviews below.
Escape Lizards has some flaws, but it's a good game overall and perhaps the closest you're going to get to Super Monkey Ball on Steam. A few other reviews were justifiably hacked off with some camera issues, but the dev has recently fixed this and added tons of miscellaneous graphical and camera options to boot, as well as altering gameplay mechanics and rebalancing the entire game. Thumbs up there. This is the only marble game I've found where you tilt the game world rather than your ball, hence the emulation of Super Monkey Ball. Obviously it isn't quite up to that lofty standard, but a lot of effort has gone into Escape Lizards and the core gameplay certainly works. You move through the levels by tilting the floor, and also have the option of flipping the environment at 90 degree angles at any point, which makes for some interesting and tricky paths through levels. If you're a speedrunner or love messing around with absurd shortcuts through levels, you'll probably love this mechanic. The movement feels pretty slick and unusually for the genre, you have a lot of control over your aerial movement in addition to being able to jump. Combining all of the above would assuredly make f…4 found this helpful
Was making this game $2 out of the blue intentional? I don't know. It doesn't matter though. I could have sworn it was around $15 when I first saw it mentioned in a rockpapershotgun article about 'new games on steam you probably didn't notice,' and its 'supermonkeyball-like' gameplay was what made me keep it in my wishlist. Welp bringing it down to $2 did just that and I can safely say that this game is SUPER quality, even if the main menu, choices of fonts, and other various things would have you think otherwise. First things first, the options menu is better than most games nowadays, even some AAA ones, including essential things for a PRECISION PLATFORMER such as this. Joystick deadzones, camera adjustments, frame rate caps(or lack thereof), are all present. Hats off. Second, and more importantly. The gameplay here is really dope for fans of Super Monkey Ball. You navigate your perfectly-spherical egg to a bell instead of a gate at the end of the level. The bell, like the gate, can be missed completely, thus necessitates being hit every time to complete the level/update your score/hit more per-level objectives. Those objectives are, -coins -vulture eggs that need to be roll…3 found this helpful
It's a fun puzzle game, but I would prefer a bit more camera smoothing.2 found this helpful

Fun super-monkey ball game. Levels are pretty diverse with no level being the same. Sidenote: A few levels are poorly designed but overall are good. There are two levels that have unobtainable coins.
Game is looked alright, mostly played by my niece. I feel like the game would feel better on portable device.
