Asterix and the Great Rescue [Sega Genesis ‧ US]

  • 2 weeks ago
About the Game:
Asterix and the Great Rescue is a video game released by Sega for the Genesis/Mega Drive in 1993 and for the Game Gear and Master System in 1994.

This game is based on the long-running, French comic book series Asterix the Gaul. The characters Asterix and Obelix must rescue Getafix (Panoramix) and Dogmatix (Idéfix) from the Romans, who are in the process of taking over Gaul.

It is a side-scrolling platform game. The startup screen offers a choice of difficulty level, as well as the ability to turn off the music and/or sound effects. The Master System and Game Gear versions allows changing characters during a level, whereas the Mega Drive/Genesis version removes this feature in favor of allowing choosing characters at the start of a level.

The Genesis version of the game was criticized for its difficult controls and steep difficulty by GamePro, who recommended it to puzzle enthusiasts. Mean Machines praised the Master System version for its entertainment value but noted a lack of originality. The Game Gear version received a mediocre review, with Electronic Gaming Monthly and GamePro highlighting frustration due to difficult controls despite good graphics.
