Escape from the Sky Temple Using a Variety of All New Abilities!

Run for Your Life All Over Again!

If there was anything the original Temple Run should have taught is, it was that it’s not a good idea to muck around in ancient ruins. You just might wake up some angry demonic monkeys! Unfortunately, some people just don’t learn.

Experience the thrill of running with your tail between your legs all over again in Temple Run 2. Flee for your life from a bigger and meaner simian guardian in a brand new temple wrought with all sorts of dangers. Run at adrenaline-pumping speeds that are otherwise impossible for the human body to accomplish, leap over bottomless chasms, and deftly avoid deadly traps as you attempt to widen the gap between you and the monster that is hot on your heels. Unlock a variety of power-ups to aid your escape and see how long you can last in this new and improved sequel to the surprise hit of 2011.

Run, Run as Fast as You Can

If you’ve played the original Temple Run, the sequel should look both familiar and new to you all at the same time. The graphics have been tweaked to deliver a far more visually-pleasing experience, while the running action is just as frenetic and responsive as ever before!

• Escape from a new colorful temple displayed with more detailed graphics.
• Watch the scenery change over time. Run through the jungle wilderness, brave raging rapids, race across bridges that are built above the clouds, and more!
• Play as four distinct-looking characters: Guy Dangerous, Scarlett Fox, Karma Lee and Barry Bones.
• Swipe your finger upward on the screen to leap over pits and obstacles.
• Swipe your finger downward to duck and slide under overhanging ceilings and traps.
• Swipe your finger left or right on the screen to make a sharp turn.
• Tilt your device to steer along the path, narrowly avoiding dangers and collecting goodies in the process.
• Keep moving! The Temple Guardian is right behind you and he will not stop until you breathe your last breath.

Escape in All New Ways

Despite the name, running isn’t the only thing you do in Temple Run 2. The game features all new mechanics that add more spice to your escape from this veritable temple of doom!

• Zip across ropes to get past wide gaps that are too great to jump over. Swing from side to side to grab coins and all of the other good stuff.
• Ride in a mine cart! Tilt your device to steer your cart and keep it on the track. Be sure to duck back into it to avoid hitting your head on those pesky low-hanging beams.

Power Up!

Running might be all fine and dandy, but even the most durable people can get winded eventually, assuming they don’t crash into a wall first. That’s why you should turn to the many power-ups that are littering the world of Temple Run 2 for help. Power-ups can be purchased or found and knowing when and where to use them is the key to getting out of the ruins with your life intact.

• Collect coins and gems during your flight. Use them to buy new powers and upgrades from the in-game store.
• Complete all sorts of challenges and objectives to earn even greater coin payouts. Run for a thousand meters straight without collecting any coins, grab a record number of rare gems in one life, and more.
• Different characters begin their chase with different power-ups. Use the one that has the most strategic ability for your play style.
• Use the Magnet to draw coins to you automatically.
• Expend the Boost to get a quick burst of speed that ignores all obstacles while active. Let that big ape eat your dust!
• Grab a Shield to get some extra protection for when you hit a trap or hazard.

The Ultimate Runner’s High

When it comes to endless running, Temple Run 2 leaves the competition far behind. It improves upon the original by providing a prettier adventure, adds all sorts of new challenges to overcome, revamps the power-ups, and adds more variety through the cart-riding sections. All the while, it keeps everything that made the first Temple Run such a hit in the first place; high speed action that tests your reflexes and constantly keeps you on the edge of your seat.

Temple Run 2 is a must-have for fans of the original game as well as for newcomers who are in the market for a speedier experience on their mobile device of choice.
