Temple Run 2 Reviews

What happened to the touch anywhere to play ? Why is there a play button arrangement in the center when basically it makes the game looks really off branded fake app of temple run. They need to rearrange the appearance of it because it really is ugly and i dont like the fact that they take away the touch anywhere to play because the play button in the center of the main screen looks off the line and will only dissatisfied and very disappointment of the appearance of how its function as well. If you were to get customers attention to your game, it needs better improvement on appearance, graphics, gesture smoothness. At this point i would not recommend anyone playing this game until it is well fixed and well rearranged to the original factor of this game. Otherwise this game will end up losing alot of players and/or users on this game so please temple run you need to do better updating the game and rearrange that main screen and graphics its horrible. I would rate this negative 10 not one star but negative 10 until it is well fixed because this is definitely disappointing and it fills me full of dissatisfaction

I love this game don’t get me wrong yes it is addictive to play but one thing that has stopped me from playing this game is advertisements every update it seems to be getting worse and worse so I stopped playing because I’m one of those players who easily gets annoyed by too many advertisements this would be a 5 star app easily but I can’t give TempleRun2 those 5 stars just because of too many advertisements but if you guys made it so people wouldn’t get bombarded with advertisements at the end of every run I would really appreciate that and I would even be willing to give TempleRun2 the 5 stars it deserves but one thing I noticed the really old version of TempleRun2 didn’t have any advertisements I don’t know what made you developers think it was okay to start advertising different apps unless you developers are plotting an end to temple run I usually only start to see this many advertisements when developers are planning on ending the use of a game I saw that with a Batman game I use to have and now it no longer exists so please narrow down the advertisements a little bit so I have some hope that TempleRun2 will not be discontinued I love TempleRun2 and I would hate to see TempleRun2 come to an end

As an edit to the following review, they tried updates and there are still problems. They should have never rolled out the major changes in the fall 2021 without adequate testing because it is still messy. They should just eliminate all of the update and return to the prior menu format. Still no choice of coin skins. Still no ability to check challenge status during a run. Character hats that came with the outfits are still missing if the character didn’t have them on during the big change. They are still trying but the game is still problematic and infuriating when you crash because of glitches and then have to watch an ad. ***It’s a simple thing. Just have the game work. There are so many glitches, lags, non- response to swipes making you crash when you have turned or jumped. And the there are all the #%^##% ads. How many times do you have to see the same ad? With all the money they are making from the ads, you would think they would be able to make the game work. 1.99 to buy out of ads. I have paid for several characters and a couple of maps. That is certainly more than 1.99. Keep your players happy and they will buy that stuff and you will make more money than a single ad removal. Keep glitching out and no one will buy anything.

I’ve been playing this game for a long time (at the very least five years) and although I’ve stopped for periods of time, I always come back. The new maps and characters are always amazing, and the global challenges are great.
HOWEVER. There’s always a however. Other people have talked enough about the ads so I’m not going to talk about that. Something that bothers me a lot is that now coins and gems are practically useless besides Head starts and Save mes. Before, you could use coins to buy new characters or outfits and gems to buy new characters and maps. However, now you can only unlock the new characters on special events and you need to purchase the maps with real world money.
As I said, I’ve been playing for a long time, so I don’t know if the older characters and maps are still able to be purchased with coins and gems. But Pirate Cove, Volcano Island qnd Enchanted Palace (and its characters) can only be purchased with dollars and I think that’s very unfair.
I understand that you guys need to make money, but I would hope that ads, Usain Bolt and people purchasing packages and coin doublers in the store would be enough. There’s no need to block most of your users from obtaining maps and characters, they should be able to be gained by putting hard work into the game and earning coins and gems.
Sorry for the long rant, but I wish you would take these comments into account and make these assests achievable for anyone.

The first time through the most recent level I ran for like 15, 20 minutes till it was going to require 3 gems to respawn and I was too bored to do so. I love this game and it’s great and all but after all these years, something needs to change in the game mechanics, not just the visual appearance. I really enjoy switching over to Temple Run Oz sometimes for this reason, moving between the different levels within the game and experiencing different kinds of challenges in each is more fun for me. For example, I like how that game has obstacles that appear out of nowhere, the different kinds of power ups, and the transitional areas in the clouds. It has a really good variety of balancing tasks too and I think that being able move between levels without having to exit your run keeps me on there way longer. The Brave version also had some innovation with the archery segments. I really wish this game would change it up more, there’s so much unmet potential. Sadly once you get the hang of it it’s just sort of meh.

I have loved Temple Run since 2011, and it has been one of the only apps I’ve had consistently on every iPhone and iPod touch I’ve owned. The graphics of the new update are beautiful, and they give you more and more features, outfits, and characters to unlock all the time. TempleRun2 has aged very well. However, my only complaint is that the global challenges have become increasingly difficult, to the point that it’s not fun for me to try and meet the goal anymore. They either require to run an absurd amount of meters in one round without falling or using a continue, or the require sheer screenplay of you playing for hours and hours to gain any kind of achievement on the goal tier. The global challenges have always been fun, and sometimes are a real challenge from me. But the last 3 or 4 are just insane. And this is coming from someone who has played for 7 years and has a high score of 19 million without using a continue. I will still play the game when I’m bored, but no longer have any desire to attempt the global challenges. Bummer.

Ok. It’s a great app to start with. Very fun, ongoing, time consuming. I love almost everything about except I wish there were more people. There are only Guy Dangerous (with outfits magnum G.u.y, and aviator), Scarlett Fox(with outfit mountaineer, Sunyu Han(No outfits) Sara Banyan( No outfits) Maria Selva (with outfit Brooklyn) Karma Lee(with outfit shadow walker, aka my fav!) Barry Bones(With outfit outrider) Zack Wonder (with outfit Romeo) Rahi Raaja(with outfit Regal) Nidhi Nirmal(with outfit Regal) Francisco Montoya(with outfit castaway) Montana Smith(No outfit) Cleopatra(No outfit) and Imhotep(No outfit). There are also Bruce lee (with outfit tracksuit) and Usain Bolt(With outfit champion), but you have to pay for them which is ugh be cuz I bought it, ain’t worth it. Neither is the lava mountain place or the dessert! The only free places are the enchanted palace, sky summit, pirate cove, and spirits cove. I still really want more people though! And more free places! Also when it comes to performance, it glitches a little here and there, but not bad. Graphics are good. Sound is ok. I like how they added relics and hats. If you unlock a hat you can put it on anyone 😂. Gets a little boring (I’ve had it for 1 year) but I still play it 😂 imma sucker for temple run 2! I want more characters plus costumes, no more little glitches, and more free places, that’s all.

This game is obviously designed to be played on your phone. It works great on small screens, but I like playing on my iPad and it is terrible for that. So, while I love this game and play it often, I know that I will quit playing in pure frustration after playing it for a while on my iPad. Not only do some swipes not register, but it’s not obvious what trips up the runners and suddenly I’m being chased by a monster and don’t know why. In addition, the game will often assume one thing when I tap something rather than what I meant. All in all, it is a frustrating game for your iPad. Another thing that is a problem are the ads that override Silent Mode on my phone. When I am playing someplace where I want to be quiet (doctor’s waiting room, at night when others are sleeping, etc), an ad that comes on with sound is frustrating. I actually like the ads because I have tried more than a few of the games advertised, but a game that overrides Silent Mode automatically goes on my ‘never buy’ list.

Update 10/21 - You have now officially ruined this game on my phone. I hadn’t opened it in a while, so last week I did and the interface is so totally different that I can’t figure out how to play the game anymore. Can’t I get the previous screen back?

I have always loved this game, and though the excessive ads can be annoying at times, that’s not what I’m going to talk about. I love the maps in this game, but I have one major issue with them: They’re all the same. Sure, they may look different, be set in a different location, or have different collectibles, but that’s where the differences end. The hazards are all the same, there’s always the land section and the sliding section (and the zipline section on Sky Summit), and everything is ruined and cracked in all of the maps. I understand that this is Temple Run so the ancient ruins aesthetic is an important part of what sets this platformer apart from others. But it would be nice to see a map or two where everything is pristine and modern, possibly even futuristic. How about a map that takes place on a space station, where you’re running from an alien? Or a futuristic laboratory where you’re being pursued by a failed biology experiment? Finally, I just want to reiterate how iconic and enjoyable this game is, and that after 10 years, it’s just as exciting as when I first played it back in ‘11.

I really think that this is a good game. But, everything has its problems and this game has some annoying ones. The GUI update. This is good but I have some complaints. What happened to the coin skin changer!? I don’t know where it went and if it’s been removed that’s just upsetting because I like to change my coin skins with different maps. Starting to run on maps is also annoying now. You have to select a map before you play, but if you’re already on the map you want to play, why do you need to select the map again? This does make it easier to play on other maps, but it’s still annoying for me. Another problem which could just be me, is the game lag and the crashing. It’ll randomly crash at times for me and when I run, if there’s an obstacle ahead, whatever I try to do, it just lags and I die. I don’t get why this is happening and it’s annoying because I can’t run on maps like this. Lack of maps makes it boring at times, but I know that the game devs are making new maps every once and a while.

I love this game it’s so great love the hats and challenges, but I would appreciate it there was a way to transfer coins to gems because several years ago I brought all the stuff you could with the coins and had an a lot of extra. I also miss the menu that made everything easy to find, but I’m really missing the option to change the coin skins unless that’s still here and I’m missing it idk. It would also be awesome if your games data saved to Game Center or something because when I got a new phone none of my progress saved and I was close to maxing the game out; I also lost the spooky sky summit map (by far the best map) which I bought for 500 gems, but the worst lost was all the hats I won in challenges especially the green Santa hat that was my favorite!! There’s probably no way that’s possible but it would still be nice for the future because I’m working on maxing it out again and don’t want to lose everything twice. But really this is one of my top games and I love it!!

Hello developers, I love the game it does pretty much everything right. When I was playing I had an update idea, how about adding some bosses to the game, for example, let’s say a player is 5000 meters into the sky summit map, then they hear a screech and a giant eagle comes out. Then the player would use something like the idol to try to defeat the beast. Some ideas how where to collect certain coins to fill up a meter like how collecting coins would fill up your meter in the game. Then when the meter is full you attack the beast. After you do this a certain amount of times the beast is defeated and the player continues playing the game. I personally think this would be a great addition to the game but this is just my prospective. Continue making this game awesome for us ok? Thanks!!

Ah, yes. Temple Run 2. I’ve played this game on and off since it came out in 2013, and I have to say I appreciate what they’ve done with it. Sure there’s new maps and characters but for me, nothing beats good 'ol Guy Dangerous in the Sky Summit map. I appreciate that while Imangi continues to add new things, they still leave all the old intact. The ads aren’t really all that annoying to me (just don’t die 😉), and after all it IS a free app. This game shows what classic mobile game studios SHOULD be doing (take a hint from these guys, Rovio). Solid game, no horrific glitches, just good ol’ Temple Run. Good job 👏

Edit: I wanted to add a few things I’ve noticed recently. The objective progress can be pretty slow and I wish there was a bit more of a coherent order to it. Also, there’s this glitch where I don’t collect coins on the zip line if I tilt my phone too fast.

So I’ve decided to come back to temple run after a while and there definitely has been some positive changes. I love the new maps, skins, and characters that have been made high quality. The overall gameplay is still nice, however I wish the character would accelerate more than its current top speed. Unless I’m mistaken the maximum speed seems to be around 2500 meters at which point you stop accelerating. Considering this maximum speed isn’t that hard unless you make a mistake, it gets a little boring. I think it would be more interesting if the player kept accelerating because it would make the higher scores seem more rewarding and prevent people from getting on the leaderboards out of spending lots of time instead of skill. Otherwise, this game and the elements with it are pretty solid. I like this game and would definitely give it 5 stars with this change.

So, first of all, this is a great game. It goes well with the idea of the original game, but also has new features and characters. But I think you need to take it a step further, and make a whole new Temple Run game. Maybe more of a story mode? You could be a character, and do certain levels to get up to the idol, being chased by monkeys here and there. Then once you made it to the end of the first world, you could play regular Temple Run on that map. Then you move to world two, and you beat levels until you get to the idol, then you can play regular Temple Run on that world. After you beat a world, you can go back and play the actual game on each map. Then you get more characters, more worlds, and add in some final bosses to make the running harder. (P.S. if you make this great game, you must give me credit by my review name, please.)

so as yk, we’ve been in quarantine for about almost half a year. these past few months haven’t really been the best for me, i woke up in the morning and i wondered what’s the point if we can’t go out and if we can’t see other people. it was getting really hard to just wake up and do NOTHING the whole day. i was looking at my moms old phone that i hacked into because- actually i’m not going to go into that story but i was looking at her old phone, and i saw temple run. my mind instantly raced back to the good memories i had when i was little playing temple run 1 and the amount of serotonin my body received. so i decided to download it on my phone and to my surprise i found out that there was a temple run TWO!!!!!! once i download it, i was hooked the scenery is just so amazing to look like and it just gives me a sense of LIFE. TempleRun2 truly saved my life.

Love this game as always, and have been addicted since deployed in Southwest Asia in 2013. It’s great how the game is in continual development. I keep getting killed in Spooky Summit by getting distracted by the ghosts that spawn in the path. Their faces...Imangi personnel? I liked it better when the Artifact Treasure Chests were not numerous. Now they are more of an obstacle than a reward.

The Frozen Festival map is fantastic, especially the ice caves. They sometimes can be the most challenging obstacle I’ve experienced so far. There is one serious glitch in any map. The involuntary advertisements that pop up when the game is paused sometimes fail to execute properly (on the iPad, not the iPhone). The game will then freeze/crash, and the progress will be lost. On a long rewarding run this is a huge disincentive to play. If some sort of mechanism could be coded that when an ad fails to execute, the game would return to functional play, that would be a major improvement.

I’ve been playing temple run for years now, I’ve played both TR & TR2. I love the fact that you get to run endlessly and there are cool things to purchase, including characters. But there is this one tiny problem which has been bugging me, the fact that coins become useless after some point in the game. Like I’ve said, I’ve been playing this game for years but now that I’ve unlocked every upgrade and every character the coins that I collect every run are gonna be useless. The only reason I collect the coins is so I can use my power up but after that it’s of no use to me. Of course I can use the head-starts but I’m not that kind of player. I hope on the next update I can use my coins for something more productive than head-starts. But other than this minor problem this game was built to satisfy the players and can be played anytime and any where, no matter your mood or age. This is a game you won’t wanna miss out on.

It was so easy no lags end it was fun very good in who created this game a five star I love it well I teach my brother how to play for two years he doesn’t know how to play so I’m trying to help him he’s been playing for three years now he is good at it but I’m trying to help him but he still bad at it so I try to help him for one year and now he’s good he never dies like me I been teaching him so long and I love this game and it needs a little update so I put it in a five star because it was so fun and I can’t believe it it was so fun and no lags that was like one piece of cake my favorite game like one of my favorite game in my life I’ve played this game for about two years already and it was good fun and great I was about to quit but it was good it was better than Minecraft but it needs a little change a new map a Halloween map or a Christmas map they need to lower the price down so I still like it and still play it but it’s good well I’ve been trying to not give up so I kept playing for about two years but it sounds kind of awkward about the lost jungle.....

Originally this was my favorite game. As time went on they made more and more variations and maps for the game, which was fine. Lately, however, now that they’re on the money grubbing bandwagon, I noticed fewer coins on runs when you needed them. And as if that wasn’t enough with all the money they must make on selling people gems and coins, they’ve added aggravating ads. I must admit that I tried to buy out of the ends and for over two weeks they still kept showing even after I received my notice that payment was received. However I must amend my previous review because they did contact me through email, and the developers gave me directions which did in fact remove the aggravating ads. The developers have since asked me to revise my review, but I had been ill for a while. The review is deserved, and I have brought it back up to a five star. I always did love the game I just hated the ads. And now for a very reasonable price, you can get rid of them too thank you so much for helping me with this problem. I apologize for the delay in correcting my review, but I have had some health issues which thankfully seem to be subsiding. It’s a great game!

I’ve been playing this game since it was released and had tons of fun with it (my current daily challenge streak is 1328). Gave it 4 stars instead of 5 because of a couple of complaints about recent changes:
1) Gem bonus spinner disappeared with the last update; please bring it back!! (I want full value for my nonexistent virtual gems!)
2) Ads have been getting more intrusive/annoying over time. I would be quite happy to pay $5 for an ad-free version of the game; please consider changing the revenue model.
I continue to admire the game’s graphics (though I wish they wouldn’t fiddle with established maps - Frozen Shadows was quite nice before all the banners and sword-hilt sculptures and such were added in, and I thought the first year’s Spooky Summit ghosts were more fun than the updated ones with people’s faces).
But these are minor quibbles from a long-term player. It’s a fun game and I’m looking forward to a 2000-day streak!!

I love this game sometimes I have a hard time putting my tablet down to do other free time activities. Since this seems like a archaeological same some, why don’t y’all have a Indiana Jones character in the game. In the movies he is alway being chased by something and finds relics. Could base a character after him and call him Indiana Doomtemple since you already have a bones character! And have another character based off one of the movies that little Chinese boy called short round!!! Relics could be the holy grail, those stones from the second film and so on and so on of relics from the movies. Or have that Egyptian man who is head of ancient Egyptian artifacts and mummy’s in Egypt can’t spell his name or pronounce it! You could do a world like and island with volcanoes erupting and trying to adobos getting lava on you or you die even a lava slide where you have to ride on a huge rock and try not to fall on the lava river!! I love this game and just trying to give y’all new ideas!! Like this comment if any agree plz thanks!!!

Honestly, I love this game! There are SO many cool places to explore and it makes me feel like I’m there on a adventure! I like the fact that the character is always trying to run from the gorilla. Well running from the gorilla, you can collect rewards like gems or a treasure chest or a running point. And after the game has ended you can earn cool prizes. The more gems you get, the node characters and worlds you’ll unlock. This game is SO addicting and it doesn’t need to update at all. Temple Run is such a adventure! You can image yourself in the world. Scarlett Fox is my favorite character. I love playing as her. I don’t mind the ads or using up my gems because then I can get more gems when I play the game! This game is addicting and SUPER fun! You should download this game! The possibilities are limitless in this game💖. Temple Run honestly helps me more confident and learn to step out of my comfort zone by trying new things! Of course Temple Run has a history. Temple Run 2 evolved from the original Temple Run. This game really is an adventure! So anybody who likes adventures, download this game! You can achieve nearly anything you want while still being new and fresh! 5 stars all the way!

Temple Run 2 is one of my absolute favorite games. It is addictive and you can achieve nearly everything you want, while still being new and fresh.
Of course to have a game like Temple Run 2, you have to have a history. Temple Run 2 evolved from the original Temple Run, which is also neat to look at. Temple Run was an amazing game that attracted quite the fan following on iPhones, mainly because it was one of the featured games in TempleRun2 Store for several months. Eventually, the creators had to many ideas for Temple Run and since Temple Run was getting old, they released Temple Run 2.
Temple Run 2 is a very fun game. With daily, weekly, and global challenges, it keeps players engaged by offering rewards for each of these events.
But with fame comes controversy, and there was a small one over Temple Run 2. For literal years, the game only had one free character, the male, Guy Dangerous. There was a small controversy at the time because the majority of people playing the game were female. So in 2014 the creators came out with the new, female free character, Scarlett Fox.
But the journey of Temple Run 2 is not over yet, with new maps, challenges, and prizes - Temple Run 2 promises to continue an ever loved game.

Temple Run 2 when I swipe it does not always respond, wither I slide or especially try to slide left it will not respond, also I cannot get the character of Grizzly Guy Dangerous.
