Asterix & Obelix Slap Them All!

Overall Asterix and Obelix Slap them all is at its core a 90’s beat 'em up and with that comes the usual trappings of the genre for better or worse. Though not as difficult as some of its fellow games in the genre the 50 levels of the game certainly make it a slog to get through. This can very much be someone's first game of the genre as it is easy and intuitive enough for players of all skill levels.

The gameplay is widely criticized for being basic, repetitive, and lacking polish, leading to a monotonous experience over its claimed 7-10 hours of playtime.

Cooperative play is also noted to be inconvenient, requiring an extra controller instead of allowing shared keyboard use.
- “Well, there are many levels, up to 10 hours of gameplay, as the creators say.”
- “To be fair, gameplay is pleasant and smooth, but too monotonous for 7-10 hours.”
- “There are also sometimes 'special levels' with slightly different gameplay and some types of traps in locations.”
- “However, the gameplay is too basic and repetitive. I know it’s a beat-em-up, but it doesn’t feel polished and there’s no nuance to the combat. The coop only works if you have an extra controller lying around when two people could easily play on the same keyboard instead.”
- “It is mostly very repetitive and the overall gameplay feels weird and gets boring after a while.”

- “The story is a mix-up of Asterix comics as far as I can tell, which is okay I guess, but the way it is told is not engaging at all.”
- “Repetitive level design, plot (more like - plnot).”
- “The story is a mix-up of Asterix comics as far as I can tell, which is okay I guess, but the way it is told is not engaging at all.”
