I think that this is a great choise for zelda fans and it's a Good game for begginers on exploring games.
Also I feel really nostalgic exploring the hyrule of a link to the past but now with new features like converting link into a paint (Kinda weird but also original). And after all I really recomend this game

Really good game with great dungeons and interesting puzzles. If you liked Link's Awakening for the Switch, then you'll definitely like this game as they have similar mechanics and features.

This is an excellent game. The graphics, story, music, and game play are top notch. It brings something old (the Link to the Past world) with something new (storyline and mechanics) and does a nice job mixing them together.

For anyone who loved Super Nintendo's "A Link to the Past" the best of all the Legend of Zelda games... Get this game. It has everything I loved from that game, but with an improved story, more gameplay, more interesting item collection and use, better puzzles, AND it doesn't involve me pulling my SNES out of storage.
I bought it twice. Once on digital when it first came out, and again recently in hard copy when I got a new 3DS and couldn't transfer the game file. No regrets.

One of my all time favorite LoZ games. Of the top down perspective it is my 2nd favorite, first being its predecessor; A Link to the Past. It stands on its own as a fantastic experience worthy of the Legendary series (pun intended). Gameplay and Music is phenomenal and it may even be worth it to buy a 3ds/2ds JUST for this.

I always been a fan of Zelda growing up. I recently purchased a Nintendo 3DS second-hand and was looking for new and affordable games. At $20, I jumped on this Zelda game and have been enjoying it during quarantine, which is a good pastime.

Must play for any Zelda fan..... Or anyone. I am a big fan of zelda: a link to the past and this plays like a modern take with a little twist but of course with a different story. Must play, must own, hours of adventure and fun.

I had already played through this game once before and had sold it online afterwards, but when it dropped to $20, I decided that it deserved to be in my collection, so I picked it up once again. It really is one of the best Zelda games out there, unless you aren't a fan of the overhead style, ala Link's Awakening. Speaking of which, I'd recommend this one over Link's Awakening, maybe even over A Link to the Past, which this release is very much inspired by. But this game has a bit more nuance to its gameplay. I also think it's cool that the way you approach dungeons is more open ended. Not a revolution on the Zelda formula that Breath of the Wild was, but I appreciated the fact that it tried some new things.

This is a fantastic adventure, even in 2020. There are many secrets to uncover and lots of puzzles to maneuver. I just purchased a 3DS and I'm really enjoying the games that are available for it. This one is a must play.

Many great Zelda games available but this is one if not my favorite one. It brings back all the great memories I have from playing Zelda back on the SNES. I adore the 2D graphics and being able to play anywhere plus an unbeatable price of 15$ is hard to beat

It’s is one of the better 3ds games and it comes at a great price. This reboot is fun for both players of the original game and players new to the series. It is reminiscent of the original but is different enough to feel brand new.

Love the refreshed take on a classic series. The art is gorgeous, music is reminiscent yet fresh, it's very challenging. I didn't love the weapons system to start, but ended up getting used to it and appreciating it.

Except for the wall mechanic, it felt very much like a 16 bit SNES game which is not a bad thing. In my personal ranking, I rate this game being better than Ocarina of Time, but below A Link to the Past and Majora's Mask.

A Link to the Past is by far my favorite Zelda title. A Link Between Worlds is an excellent successor to the game. Worthy of playing for anyone that enjoys the Zelda series. Also at $20 you can't go wrong.

This game could be considered a sequel if you will, to Link to the Past. The game map and the music is the same. The story line and game play is very good.

Best 2D Handheld Zelda!

Forget The Phantom Hourglass and Spirit Tracks! While those were decent games, their unconventional stylus-only controls and cumbersome game mechanics (repeating dungeon in Phantom and train conducting in Spirit) kept them from being truly great. A Link Between Worlds on the other hand, is text-book Zelda all the way.
Being a remake/sequel of sorts to the SNES classic A Link To The Past, ALBW had quite a lot to live up to and it does not disappoint, bringing that great, finely tuned Zelda experience with enough new mechanics and gimmicks to feel fresh (and not half-baked as in the aforementioned DS titles).

This is one of the best Zelda games on Nintendo's handhelds. Awesome music and constant battles with puzzles involved. An absolute joy on my New 3DS XL.
