Story and World:

The year is 50 BC and Gaul is occupied by the Romans—apart from one small village of indomitable Gauls. Caesar is searching for the Treasure of Toutatis, a relic that could help him subjugate all Gaul and its inhabitants. Asterix, Obelix, and their friends must find it first and foil his plan. Their journey crosses six regions and brings them into conflict with Roman legions, pirates, Egyptians, Vikings, and wild animals. Through card battles, deck upgrades, and strategic decisions, the heroes advance through an original adventure never before seen in the comics.
