Obelix, published by Atari in 1983 almost exclusively for the European PAL market, puts the player in control of Asterix while Obelix, controlled by a second command, drops menhirs onto the Roman soldiers. Hitting a Roman freezes him and leaves him vulnerable: if Obelix drops a menhir right on top of him at that moment, it crushes him for points. It's one of the few European licenses the Atari 2600 catalog had in its final years of commercial life, and due to its limited print run and near-exclusive distribution outside the United States, it's today one of the hardest-to-find pieces in the console's entire PAL catalog.
