The famed Asterix, the Gaul who resists now and ever the Roman invasion, appeared in an arcade-exclusive 1992 Beat 'em Up by Konami.He also appeared in an Atari 2600 game that was a rethemed version of Taz, as well as a platformer on the Sega Master System, but this page is not about them.The game allows the player to play as either Asterix or Obelix (or both in case of two players), fighting their way through 7 stages based on various Asterix Comics.The game received a spiritual sequel in 2021, Asterix and Obelix - Slap Them All!.

comment
All There in the Manual: The missions are meant to be based on Asterix stories. Actually, they just establish a location, and that's all. You have to had read the books to understand the idea. For example, the mission "Asterix in Britain" never made it to Britain itself, it's all the part in the sea before reaching it.

The Unfought: In compliance with the comics, Julius Caesar is never fought directly in the game despite being the Big Bad. Instead, he appears in the arena, overlooking the Boss Bonanza and ordering the next boss to enter the stage after the previous one is beaten.

comment
Adaptation Amalgamation: The games stages are based on various Asterix comics. And even within a stage, characters and plots can get mixed, like having the Egyptian Sorcerer from Asterix Conquers Rome show up as a boss in the stage based on Asterix and Cleopatra. The mission to rescue Panacea is not based on any specific Asterix book. The main image is the cover of "Asterix in Corsica", and the boss is a guy from "Asterix in Spain" (which has its own mission).

Can't Get Away with Nuthin': Even here, Obelix is not allowed to drink the magic potion. Asterix's Healing Potion is the magic potion, and Obelix's is a boar. And if there are two players, there is a magic potion and a boar... but Obelix can not drink the potion.

This Is Gonna Suck: The Roman legionaries and other mooks can be seen looking very nervous when Asterix or Obelix gets hold of magic potion or a boar respectively, since this briefly triggers a Super Mode for them. As the fight against the two bosses in the British stage continues, the Roman centurion that is cheering them on starts looking more and more nervous as he realizes his men are about to lose. Most bosses start thinking "About to die" when they are nearly defeated.

Written Sound Effect: As a nod to the game's origin being a comic book, enemies getting pummeled will have written sound effects - WHACK! THWAP! SLAP! - accompanying each hit. It shows up occasionally in the original arcade game, but it's everywhere in the 2021 follow-up that allows you to fill a screen with multiple "THWAP!"s.
