Is Asterix still worth playing in 2026?
A platformer from Infogrames, Asterix sends the famous Gaul running across the Roman provinces to rescue his countrymen, in a colourful adventure faithful to the comic's spirit. The careful art direction, the licence's humour and an accessible gameplay give a pleasant platformer, even if the level design stays classic and the difficulty sometimes uneven. The visual charm and the fidelity to the work carry the whole. For a retro platforming fan, an Asterix fan or someone curious about comic adaptations, the title keeps a likeable character and a good natured entertainment.
