At Strictly Limited, we take pride in curating a diverse collection of both classic and modern titles that are cherished by collectors worldwide. However, we understand that some exceptional games often fly under the radar or are tricky to access for some collectors. That's precisely why we've introduced our Game of the Month feature, aiming to shed light on these lesser-known treasures that truly deserve your time and attention. All featured games have been introduced, produced, and shipped some time ago. As of today, there are still units in stock from their initial release, spanning six months or more. As an added treat, each Game of the Month enjoys a special reduced price! Our spotlighted titles are introduced by our passionate team members who share a unique connection with the games.
This month's highlighted game is a true Partner Store smasher, Asterix & Obelix - Slap Them All!, developed by Mr Nutz Studio and published by Microids.
From today until July 10th, Ultra Collector's Editions will be available for just 49.99 € (instead of 99.99 €)!
The massive Collector's Edition of Asterix & Obelix - Slap Them All! includes not only the latest video game but also three additional titles: Asterix & Obelix XXL, Asterix & Obelix XXL 2, and Asterix & Obelix XXL 3! All these games blend the humor of the original French comic series with action-packed gameplay. Asterix & Obelix - Slap Them All! stands out by capturing the essence of the hand-drawn cartoons, reminiscent of the iconic SNES game. Our Customers' Ear, Simon, who became a Nintendo fan with his first 16-bit console in the '90s, was especially excited to talk about the game:
Q: With Asterix & Obelix - Slap Them All! obviously being based on the famous French comic series, what can you tell us about the feel of the game?
Simon: It's a classic Asterix & Obelix: fun, full of slaps, and perfect for co-op play, just like in the SNES days. The game captures the SNES vibe with hand-drawn levels and characters that feel true to the original comics. It's quite different from the previous XXL games included in this collection, which took a different approach. This new adventure fits perfectly into the series and brings a fresh yet nostalgic experience.
Q: You mentioned the three Asterix & Obelix XXL games having a different style. Are they still sort of comparable or linked to Slap Them All?
Simon: They aren't really connected, but were published by the same French studio Microids. The XXL games offer a different take on the series, and having them included adds a lot of value. It’s interesting to see how the series has evolved over time, and each game brings something unique to the table.
Q: How did you find the Adventure Mode?
Simon: Adventure Mode is fantastic. It offers hours of gameplay where you can beat up hordes of Romans and explore the world. The developers did a great job incorporating elements from the original Asterix & Obelix albums, and the bonus chapter exclusive to the game is a real treat.
Q: Any final thoughts on why fans should pick up Asterix & Obelix - Slap Them All!?
Simon: If you’re a fan of Asterix & Obelix or Beat ‘Em Up games in general, this is a must-play. It’s fun, nostalgic, and packed with content. The developers have done a fantastic job bringing the classic duo back to life in a modern yet faithful way. Grab your magic potion and get ready for an epic adventure!
