Play Asterix and the Secret Mission (Europe) (En,Fr,De) Online

Game Overview

Asterix and the Secret Mission is one of those SEGA Master System games that just oozes charm. You play as Asterix (or Obelix if you're feeling extra smashy), bouncing around bright, blocky levels that look like they jumped straight out of the comics. Romans pop up everywhere—behind bushes, on rooftops—and you either bonk them with your fists or chug a magic potion to turn into an unstoppable whirlwind for a few seconds. Feels great when you time it right.

Some levels have these little puzzles where you’re moving rocks or hunting for keys, but mostly it’s about the satisfying thwack of knocking helmets off soldiers. The music’s jaunty, the controls are snappy, and there’s even this weird level where you’re dodging boars in a forest. Classic Asterix nonsense. If you grew up with the comics, you’ll spot all the little references—even Getafix’s hut looks perfect. Just watch out for those archers; they’ve got annoyingly good aim.

It’s not the hardest platformer out there, but it’s got enough challenge to keep you grinning. And honestly? Still holds up better than most licensed games from that era.
