Temple Run 2

Temple Run 2 Unblocked starts the moment you grab the idol: a demon monkey comes over the wall behind you and the only way to stay alive is forward. Corners arrive with no warning, the path runs along cliff edges and zip lines, and the whole thing gets faster the further you get.

What Is Temple Run 2?

Imangi Studios released Temple Run 2 in 2013 and it became one of the most played endless runners ever made. The formula is simple: your explorer runs automatically, and you turn, jump, slide and lean to stay on a path that is actively trying to throw you off it. There is no level to finish - the run ends when you hit something, and the score is how far you got.

Coins collected on the way buy upgrades between runs: a longer boost, a bigger coin magnet, a save that revives you once. Those upgrades are how casual runs turn into serious distances, because raw reflexes alone stop being enough after a couple of minutes.

How to Play Temple Run 2

Controls

• Left / Right arrows - turn a corner, and switch lanes on a straight
• Up arrow - jump a gap or a fallen tree
• Down arrow - slide under a low obstacle
• Phone or tablet - swipe in the same four directions

Turns are the hard part. The corner has to be taken as you reach it, not when you see it, and a missed turn means running straight off the edge. Everything else - traps, tree trunks, fire jets - is a jump or a slide decided in a fraction of a second.

Tips to Run Further

• Turn late, not early. Pressing as soon as the corner appears usually turns you into a wall; the input only registers properly near the junction itself.
• Lane-change for coins, never for fun. Drifting sideways on a straight is the most common way to be out of position for the next obstacle.
• Spend coins on the boost first. It skips a chunk of track at full speed and is the single most useful upgrade early on.
• Save the revive for a deep run. Using it at 2,000 metres wastes it; the point is to rescue the run that was going to be your best.
• Watch the path, not the monkey. He only catches you if you are already stopped - looking back costs you the next corner.

Temple Run 2 FAQ

Is Temple Run 2 free to play?

Yes. The game runs free in your browser on this page - nothing to buy, download or sign up for.

Can I play Temple Run 2 at school or on a Chromebook?

Temple Run 2 unblocked is hosted here rather than on a separate games portal, so it usually loads on school and work networks and runs in Chrome on a Chromebook. Check your own school or company rules first.

What are the controls?

The arrow keys: left and right to turn, up to jump, down to slide. On a touchscreen, swipe in those same directions.

What do coins do?

They buy permanent upgrades between runs - a longer boost, a stronger coin magnet, a one-off save - which matter more than reflexes once runs get long.

How do I stop falling off at corners?

Turn as you arrive at the junction rather than when you first see it, and avoid changing lanes just before a corner so you are already straight when it comes.

Does it work on mobile?

Yes - swipe controls are built in, and the game was designed for touch first, so phones and tablets play it comfortably.
