PAX West 2025 Spotlight: Terrible Lizards

When stranded at a dusty Route 66 roadside attraction, escape isn’t just recommended - it’s essential. Terrible Lizards drops you into “Dalton’s Dinos,” an eerie, abandoned dinosaur exhibit where every ledge, wall, and shadow could be your only lifeline. This first‑person horror platformer fuses frantic parkour-style traversal with sinister environmental storytelling. Running, jumping, swinging and climbing become your only tools against monstrous threats lurking beneath the quiet facades. At PAX West 2025, we had a chat with John, the creative director for Terrible Lizards, to explore how he’s crafted a tension-filled experience where movement is life and curiosity can become a trap. You’ll follow the trail of cryptic clues, search for missing staff, and work towards unraveling the mystery of the museum…or seal your fate in the process. If you’ve ever believed the scariest moments happen when you hesitate mid-leap, this interview is for you. Watch the full video below and learn why Terrible Lizards is quietly prowling into the spotlight.
