Bounty Bob Strikes Back! is a platform game released as the sequel to Miner 2049er. It was designed and programmed by Bill Hogue for Atari 8-bit computers and published by his company, Big Five Software. The game adds a 3D look to the platforms and increases the level count from 10 to 25. As with the original, the Atari 8-bit version was released on ROM cartridge—now 40K versus the 16K of the previous game. Ports to the Atari 5200, Commodore 64, Amstrad CPC, and ZX Spectrum were released in 1985.

In 2001, Bill Hogue released a combo of Miner 2049'er and Bounty Bob Strikes Back for free with a custom, embedded Atari 8-bit emulator.
