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.

While the genre struggled in the early days on the Switch, the beat-em-up has proven to be alive and well on the Switch, including some titles I'd consider genre-defining that have arrived over the last 2 years...

This is not going to make you stop playing Streets of Rage 4 or cancel your preorder for the upcoming Teenage Mutant Ninja Turtles game, but damn, am I glad this exists. Asterix & Obelix: Slap Them All is really easy and can be really repetitive at times, but it’s lovely to look at and listen to. The fact it’s so easy makes each combat section even funnier, all thanks to some of the best animations I’ve seen in a game in a while.

We've really appreciated the return of Goscinny & Uderzo's creature in videogame with this Asterix & Obelix Slap Them All. Choosing an arcade beat'em up was a fitting idea, and the decision to merge it with an exquisite hand-drawn graphic was the best way to start a new beginning for Asterix in modern gaming. However, the game reuses too much assets throughout the adventure and it's victim of its own repetitiveness, which prevents him to reach higher scores. Perhaps the masterpiece is not on sight, but the Gauls have taken the right road to reach it.

Asterix & Obelix: Slap Them All! it is a game of contrasts. If you look at it as a tribute to the comics of Uderzo and Goscinny, it has a lot of charm; if you look at it as beat'em up, it looks like a Gaul who has forgotten to take the magic potion before messing with a Roman.

Asterix and Obelix: Slap Them All! is a game I would play with my younger siblings. It is a simplistic brawler that becomes repetitive after going through a few acts, but has great visuals and shows the surprising amount of charm such an old series carries today. There are certainly better beat-em-up options out there, but I did find this game more fun than the recent Battletoads, so I think that says something.

Asterix and Obelix Slap'em All is a charming beat'em all which still lacks of depth too keep the enjoyment on the long run. Despite its gorgeous look and animation, the repetitiveness of the 50 levels and simple gameplay aim for a young audience more than the average street fighter.

Slap Them All is by no means perfect. It's shallow, even by genre standards, lacks the all-but mandatory four-player option, has been balanced for two players to the point that it doesn't really work as a single-player game, and fails to give players any reason to give it a second go once powered through. And yet at the same time, it is the best use of the beloved Asterix & Obelix property that we have seen in years and for us long-suffering Asterix & Obelix fans, for that reason alone Slap Them All is a gift.

For fans of the adventures of Asterix and Obelix, Slap them All! is simply a must-have. The Mr. Nutz Studio team faithfully reflected the atmosphere and humor of the comics, it is a pity that the publisher did not try the Polish language version!

A great staging, although it remains more cautious in terms of gameplay, missing some more depth.

Asterix & Obelix: Slap Them All leaves discordant feelings once finished. It is a beat 'em up capable of entertaining thanks to its indignant rhythm, its hilarious fights and the genuine sympathy of the universe created by Goscinny and Uderzo that also works well in a videogame key.

‎Asterix & Obelix Slap Them All! He stays at half gas and does not get what he is looking for, although the formula should not be very complex. However, it is a title that the smallest of the house can easily enjoy due to its careful design and that is not excessively difficult.‎

Asterix & Obelix: Slap them All! is a simple beat'em up with magnificent graphics. Unfortunately, although beautiful, it is repetitive and becomes boring easily.

Asterix & Obelix: Slap them All! is a classic 2D beat 'em up with impeccable graphics but lacks playability that is too flat, simple and can easily fall into repetition. It still gets to be fun and offers generous length for the game genre it belongs to, so every fan of Uderzo and Goscinny's characters should give it a try.

Slap them All! it's a much better title than The Crystal Menhir, but it's still not the product I would expect from this brand. At first glance, it's a good game, but you have the conviction that something is missing.

Asterix & Obelix: Slap Them All! is a good addition to the beat ’em up genre but it doesn't bring much value to the genre itself compared to other titles released in the last few years. It's clearly more intended for casual players and a good experience for fans of the Goscinny & Uderzo comics. It lacks a healthy swig of magic potion to make the game really powerful.

Asterix & Obelix: Slap them All! is a cute beat'em'up that sadly doesn't really stand out in any way other than the graphics.

A not-so-exciting scrolling beat-em-up, due to repetitive levels and poorly honed game mechanics. The beautiful graphic setting and local multiplayer raise it from total lack of interest.
