It combines several action game/arcade sequences and some elements from the role-playing game genre.

Like its predecessor, LBA 2 is real-time adventure.

Essentially every character in the game is interactive and will respond differently when Twinsen speaks to them. The LBA world is considered extremely large and varied for games of its time. All text in the game is spoken by the characters. After completion of certain tasks the player is presented with a full motion video sequence. Unlike LBA, it is possible to save the game at any point. The interior game field is divided in scenes (a small block of the game that is active). All characters and vehicles are 3D polygon-based objects, allowing for full rotation and movement abilities. LBA 2 has two viewing modes - for outdoor scenes a 3D perspective view is used, and for indoor scenes it uses a 3D isometric perspective (the game field is rotated 45 degrees).
