It is single-player on every platform. There is no co-op, no multiplayer, and no cross-play to worry about — which also means there is no reason to pick a platform based on where your friends are.
Game Pass
Terrible Lizards launched on Xbox Game Pass on day one, and it is playable through PC Game Pass as well. If you already subscribe, that is the cheapest way to play it by a wide margin — cheaper than the launch discount, and dramatically cheaper than full price.
Two caveats. First, day-one Game Pass titles rotate out eventually, so if you want to keep it long term, buying is the safer option. Second, Game Pass versions still use the same achievement list, so your progress is not wasted if you buy later on the same account.
Editions and DLC
- One edition. There is no deluxe, no season pass and no cosmetic pack. You buy the game and you get the game.
- No paid DLC at launch. The developer has described it as a complete game with no chapters held back.
- Free demo. A separate Steam app with two halves. Progress does not carry over, but it costs nothing to try.

Is it worth the price
At $24.99 for six to ten hours and a real New Game Plus mode, it sits in the honest middle of the indie price range. It is not a $40 game dressed as a $25 one, and it is not a two-hour demo sold as a full release.
If you are on the fence, the demo is free and the Game Pass version is included. If neither applies, wait for a sale — this is a game that will be discounted again, and it will be just as good in six months.
