The long and rich history of the Asterix comics continues with its newest game entry, Asterix and Obelix XXL . The story of the game involves Asterix and Obelix returning to their village in Gaul, after a day of hunting. They come to find that all their fellow village people have been captured. Along with their capture is also the theft of their magic potion, a potion that gives them superhuman strength. Caesar has captured the Gauls and spread them out to the furthest corners of the Roman Empire. Asterix and Obelix must find and free their friends and get the potion before it reaches Caesar.
The gameplay consists of the ability to switch between Asterix and Obelix at different times, using each one's skills to your advantage. Through the adventure, you will unlock and gain powerful combos and attack moves to help you. This large adventure takes you through six different countries made up of 47 areas, totaling 40 plus levels. The gameplay is varied from battling hundreds of Romans at once to riding/racing sequences and puzzle-solving. The graphics have vibrant colors, picturesque backgrounds, exciting special effects, and humorous animations. The sound includes zany effects, a range of music from roman to Egyptian, and good-humored voice acting.

Game Guide
Extracted from the original game manual
This is an action-adventure game where players control Asterix and Obelix, two Gaulish heroes, as they embark on a quest across the Roman Empire. Their goal is to rescue their captured villagers and recover a stolen magic potion from Caesar's forces.
Story
The Village Is Deserted!
It is 50 B.C., and Caesar and his elite troops have pulled off the impossible. Taking advantage of a sudden spring storm and the absence of our two heroes, the Romans invaded the indomitable Gaulish village.
Upon their return to the village, Asterix and Obelix quickly learn what has happened. Everybody is now Caesar's prisoner, and the Romans have also seized a cauldron full of Magic Potion!
While the cauldron is on its way to Rome, the Gaulish prisoners have been split up and scattered across the Roman Empire. Without a moment's wait, Asterix and Obelix set off in search of their friends.

Tips & Maps
Rage Combo
Dogmatix can be launched quicker and further so that he can disarm more Romans before he returns.
Club Combo
Grab an opponent and use him as a club to strike the ground (or nearby enemies). Press the * button multiple times to pound the enemy down faster. Striking the ground generates a shock wave that disarms any opponents nearby. The Roman is ejected on the sixth impact.
Power-hammer Combo
Grab an opponent and use him as a power-hammer that causes nearby enemies to drop their weapons and retreat.
Mole Combo
Eliminate a column of Roman troops in turtle formation. After a Double Jump, Asterix spins and makes a dive before burrowing into the ground at high speed. From underground, he eliminates all enemies near the impact zone.
Twister Combo
Asterix and Obelix are both transformed into tornadoes that suck enemies in as they gain speed.
Twister Fusion Combo
Press the button when the tornadoes are together and linked by an electric arc. The Twister Fusion is more powerful than the Twister.
Items & Weapons
Mechanisms
Objects that require both heroes to operate, such as cable cars, catapults, and rotating beams.
Shield
Each shield contains five Life Points. Players start the game with three shields.
Leg O' Boar
Replenishes Life Points.
Roman Helmet
Collected by walking over it, granting points based on the helmet type.
Roman Helmet Multiplier
Gives a bonus by multiplying the number of Roman Helmets collected for several seconds.
Magic Potion
Only Asterix can collect and consume it immediately. If Asterix is already under its effect and collects another, it creates a shock wave eliminating nearby Romans.
Locks
To unlock them, players must defeat the indicated number of Romans.
