Lego Indiana Jones 2: The Adventure Continues is a Lego-themed action-adventure video game developed by Traveller's Tales and published by LucasArts that is based on the Indiana Jones franchise. It is the sequel to the 2008 game, Lego Indiana Jones: The Original Adventures. The game allows players to play through the first four Indiana Jones movies, including Indiana Jones and the Kingdom of the Crystal Skull, which was not included in the previous game. The game adapts different scenes to turn into levels than the original. The game was released for the Wii, Xbox 360, PlayStation 3, Nintendo DS, PlayStation Portable, and Microsoft Windows in 2009. The Mac OS X version of the game was released on 2 April 2011 by Feral Interactive. Lego Indiana Jones 2's release on the PSP and Nintendo DS, although going under the same name, is different from the version available on consoles, PC and Mac, with much less content and varying gameplay.

Lego Indiana Jones 2: The Adventure Continues lets the player control a Lego figure in areas related to Indiana Jones movie scenes. Each movie in the franchise is contained in a 'playset', with the exception of the Kingdom of the Crystal Skull, which is divided into three playsets. Each playset contains five story levels and a unique hub. These hubs are large maps based on locations from the films that function as directories to levels, contain puzzles, purchasable characters, and are traversable by purchasable vehicles. This differs from the original, which had a single hub (Barnett College) where levels could be accessed immediately. Playsets have four types of story levels: one with a boss battle against the movie's main antagonist, vehicular levels (in which the player needs to destroy vehicles using the player's own vehicle), levels where many waves of enemies need to be defeated, and general puzzle levels. Along with the main story levels in each playset, there are additional levels to be found across the hubs, as well as vehicles and characters to be bought. To purchase the characters and vehicles, the player can destroy Lego props or complete puzzles inside levels.

Lego Indiana Jones 2 includes a level creator, the first Lego game to do so, where players can create their own levels using assets unlocked through progression into the game, as well as having to purchase them. This includes blocks, traps, animals, and programmable enemies. In this process, props and bricks are manually put down. This system can also be used in co-op. Similarly, there is an 'adventure creator' wherein players can make and tweak several decisions to quickly create a custom level. All of these adventures are based on content already seen in the game. In addition to the level creator, there is also a character creator, although Lego Indiana Jones 2 is not the first Lego game to include such a feature.

Two-player co-op was changed from the original with split-screen; rather than forcing both characters to always be close enough to fit on the same screen, the game seamlessly splits when characters wander apart from one another and merge into one screen when both players are near each other. On 23 November 2009, LucasArts revealed on Twitter that it was working on a patch for the PlayStation 3 and Xbox 360 versions of the game which enabled online co-op gameplay, including for custom levels.

According to IGN, the game should takes around 10 and a half hours to complete the story levels, and around 23 and a half to complete the entirety of the game. The handheld version takes 11 hours to complete, and 25 to finish the entirety of the game.

The game's handheld release covers only the Kingdom of the Crystal Skull, dividing it into three chapters. The release plays akin to a sidescroller, in that the levels primarily move left and right, rather than forward. The version does this while also employing the same design elements in the main release like puzzles, dispersed enemies, and vehicles. It also adapts wholly different scenes for levels. Since it only adapts one film, the version has a single hub, which is set on an island. The release also makes use of local online co-op, where the game is run on multiple nearby devices, instead of running on one device played by multiple people.
