They lifted the temple out of its hiding place, and because of its huge size, it was found quickly. As time passed, the temple remained unfound until the gems that where placed all over the huge temple were suddenly charged by an unknown source of power. They built a temple for their supreme god and a little while later the disease hit. Believing that they were gifts from their gods, they built large and impressive structures with them. Before this, though, the civilization mined impressive green gems. The leader of the civilization was spared by a remedy, but because he didn't die, the potion turned him into the large demon monkey that chases you from the temple. The temple was at one time on the ground an ancient civilization built the temple but they were killed by a disease. Instead of the three smaller demon monkeys in the first game, the player is chased by a single, much larger monkey. You have to jump over obstacles (swipe up on the screen), slide under others (swipe down), turn at intersections (swipe left or right), and move to the left or right to collect coins or avoid obstacles (tilt your device left or right). Temple Run 2 features a new scenario which mixes Asian style temples, grass paths through a forest, rivers, zip-lines, mines, narrow bridges and aqueducts.
