EA Mobile has released Asterix: The Official Mobile Game of the Movie.
It’s not the first time Asterix goes mobile as in the past, In-Fusio
released several Asterix mobile games.
The mobile game will be released as Asterix at the Olympic Games heads to the cinemas in over 40 countries world-wide. With more then 325 million comics sold, Asterix is one of Europe’s most popular cartoon characters.
The platform adventure game captures the atmosphere of the film and explores the plot as Asterix and Obelix compete in Greece to win the hand of Princess Irina for young Gaul, Lovestorix. Players start out on the streets of Athens before qualifying for events such as long jump, running, disk, football and the chariot race finale.
“A faithful rendition of the Asterix cartoon style, a variety of fun game-play options and the innovative twist on sporting events means that this casual game appeals on many levels,” commented EA Mobile Producer, James Dillon. “We’re pleased to extend the enjoyment of the film onto mobile and enable players to lead these famous characters to their destinies.”
