Obelix Overview
Asterix & Obelix: Bash Them All! is a compilation containing two distinct 2D side-scrolling platform experiences. Both titles are adaptations of the French Astérix comics, with one being a port of an earlier SNES game and the other based on the Cleopatra story from both a comic and an animated film.
In the Cleopatra-themed game, the player controls Asterix on a mission to assist an architect named Artifis in constructing a pyramid. Progress is achieved by navigating platform levels from left to right, overcoming various obstacles. The journey involves confronting different enemy types, including Roman soldiers dispatched by Caesar and interfering pirates, who are typically defeated by being knocked away.
The structure of the game involves completing standard platforming stages, each followed by a concluding mini-game. The narrative for this portion adheres closely to the events of its source material.
