Lode Runner 2 was a computer game released in 1998 for Mac OS and Windows. Lode Runner 2 was the first installation of the Lode Runner series to have "3D" graphics (they were really isometric-perspective 2d graphics, giving the illusion of 3d), groundbreaking for the series.

In the game, players could play as a woman or a man, named Jake and Jane according to the manual, but the player's default name was Digmo (which was changeable), with the usual goal of collecting gold to go the next level, avoiding "Mad Monks" along the way. However, instead of the usual sidescroller, players were able to move in four different directions on a freeform map. There were separate levels designed for cooperation, as well as Deathmatch in multiplayer mode.

Lode Runner 2 was made by Presage Software and distributed by GT Interactive on the PC, and MacSoft on the Mac version.
