In this arcade adventure, it all comes down to you. The fifty screens you must explore take in your home village, a Roman encampment, and the forests in between. You have five pieces of wild boar, and these are used as you become hungry. Contact with wild boars or Roman soldiers triggers a one-on-one fight with punches and kicks. Defeating a boar earns you another piece of food, to restore energy once all lives are gone. Some sections are blocked until you collect their keys. Ardok the Barbarian is the US release of Asterix and the Magic Cauldron.
Original game developed by Beam Software for Commodore 64, published in 1986 by Spinnaker Software
