Can I play as Obelix?
Yes! Obelix is playable in certain levels and has unique throwing attacks with menhirs (giant stones), but cannot use magic potion since he fell into the cauldron as a baby.
What happens if I lose all health?
You lose a life and restart from the last checkpoint. If all lives are lost, the game ends. Extra lives can be earned by collecting special bonus items hidden throughout levels.
How do I defeat armored enemies?
Regular punches won't work – either use magic potion for one-hit KOs, jump on their heads, or (as Obelix) throw menhirs at them. Watch for attack patterns to dodge their spears!
