About Obelix

Obelix is a game where you simultaneously play as Asterix and Obelix maintaining their favorite Gaulish sport of thumping the living daylights out of Roman soldiers. The objective of the game is to help Asterix stun Roman soldiers simply by running into them, and they turn white from blue, while you command good ol'Obelix to throws his oversized Menhirs down at stunned Romans with a splat.

Before you buy

Medium risk. No fakes are documented. Because Atari made it, expect a period Atari label and a mask-ROM board, not an EPROM. Check the label against a scan and ask for a board photo.
