About Lizard State
Lizard State is a single player stealth action game with a short and focused campaign that focuses on deep gameplay systems and rich player expression, allowing you to sneak through guards undetected or to blast your way through if things go sideways.
It takes place over the course of a night. Your mission is to retrieve a hostage held up on an island that has been taken over by a renegade group. Make your way through enemy lines and uncover what lies beneath the rebellion in this retro sci-fi universe.
FEATURES:

- Visuals inspired by classic PS2-era games.
