Banana Kong 2 in IOS

Dash through the jungle!

Walkthrough, Guilds, Tips on this special game

Our Site Score

85/100

Banana Kong 2 takes everything that made the original a mobile classic and turns the volume up. The core loop remains the same—run, jump, and swing to outrun a banana avalanche—but the variety of environments is vastly improved. One moment you're in the lush jungle, and the next you're surfing waves or sliding down snowy peaks. The addition of new biomes like the North Pole and underwater lagoons keeps the 'endless' runner feel significantly less repetitive.

The controls are refined, utilizing simple one-thumb inputs that feel responsive, though the new power-dash mechanics take some getting used to. What really stands out is the presentation; the hi-res graphics and the upbeat soundtrack by Tee Lopes make every run feel like a high-budget cartoon. While the Kong Coins can feel like a bit of a grind for upgrades and cosmetics, the mission system provides enough structure to keep you motivated. It’s a worthy successor that proves there's still plenty of life in the genre.

Dinsun Review

Dinsun here. It’s an endless runner. You’ve played this a thousand times. It’s better than the first one technically—more variety in the biomes, slightly tighter controls—but it doesn't do anything to move the genre forward. It’s safe. It’s loud. It’s fine for a kid, but for someone who remembers when games had an ending, it’s just a treadmill. It's competent, but uninspired.
