The main characters of the game - the Gauls Asterix and Obelix. They need to go through several more levels, to fight there with Roman soldiers and other enemies, meet old friends who will help them get to the castle and Caesar. As you progress through the game heroes will visit Rome, Egypt, Mesopotamia and other countries.
In terms of gameplay characters hardly differ from each other, although the attack Obelix stronger, but it is more sluggish than Asterix. Also, characters can use more bounces (and special moves): Asterix causing a series of blows, Obelix - only one, but a huge force (for example, to relieve the horse riders chasing the hero on his way to Rome, Obelix only one such a hit in While Asterix need to hit the opponent a few (7-8) times).
Levels in the game executed in the form of closed locations with horizontal and vertical side-scrolling, which can move in any direction. In constructing the levels used two-dimensional graphics, as well as graphics with isometric.
