Lizards Must Die
Lizards Must Die drops you into a sun-scorched battlefield where reptilian invaders pour in from every direction. Each wave grows more aggressive, mixing in armored brutes, darting skirmishers, and winged threats that test your reflexes. Your arsenal starts modest, but salvaging fallen enemies and completing wave goals lets you unlock heavier weaponry and defensive gear. The core loop stays tight: move, shoot, survive, and improve before the next onslaught begins. This browser-based shooter keeps sessions short and intense, ideal for a quick break or a longer siege. The clean visuals and responsive controls let you focus on decision-making, not fiddling with settings. With escalating difficulty and a simple risk-reward system, Lizards Must Die rewards players who balance aggression with caution. There is no story to follow—just an arena, your gun, and an endless supply of scaly foes determined to end your run.

What is Lizards Must Die
The desert is crawling with enemies, and they all have one goal. Grab your weapon and make sure the lizards don't reach you.
How to Play
Move your character with the arrow keys or WASD, and aim with the mouse, clicking to fire. Survive each wave, collect drops, and buy upgrades between rounds to extend your run.
Tips for Playing
- Prioritize fast-moving lizards first, as they close distance quickly.
- Save ammo by using single shots on weak enemies instead of spraying.
- Position yourself near corners so lizards funnel into a narrow approach.
- Upgrade your reload speed early to keep the pressure off in later waves.
- When overwhelmed, retreat to a different side of the map to regroup.
