Customer Ratings & Reviews

I have always wanted a Zelda main character game and this did not disappoint. Fun and familiar, you forget that it is a different character.

Not in my top 3 Zelda games but it was a blast to play! I really like the new ways of how you interact with items and the world around you. Its not as difficult as previous titles and theres always multiple solutions to each puzzle, but id say its on the same open world level as breath of the wild and tears of the kingdom considering I explored the majority of the map before even starting the first temple.

Love the game! It's such a cool refresh of the original game!

Criticism of this game refer to it as “Tears of the Kingdom lite.” There are quite a few similarities, but this game stands on its own. Puzzles are fun to solve, solutions are plentiful, and the game just begs you to “break” the world. Traditional dungeons are back, along with “rifts” which are mini dungeons that are perfect for the handheld aspect of the Switch. Controls are tight and intuitive, and the game works well in handheld mode. Additionally, it’s the first game you can actually play as the titular Princess (we don’t count those CD-i games). Strongly recommended for now or as a gift for the holiday season.

Great iteration of the 'Gameboy' Zelda titles, albeit in higher quality graphics. Superb originality for a Zelda game. Easy enough for most people to play, completable even.

If your a fan of 2D zelda games this one is a must play. Great for all ages and skill levels.

Another great Zelda game. Yes, 2D but this game has an over-world almost 10x the size Links Awakening! Elements from other past Zelda games clearly installed in this new game. Great play action. Not too bad frame rate considering age of Switch system circa 2017. Great last Zelda game for Switch before Nintendo releases Switch 2 perhaps in 2025. If you are a Zelda game fan then get this game.

You've seen this before! Another good Zelda title for your handheld. If you are about gaming on the go, love Zelda titles, puzzle, action puzzlers on a 2D map (think Link's Awakening) - You will love this! Be warned - the menu system can get overwhelming, Zelda doesn't fight, she uses ghost minions that can fight, pull her, track enemies, even a shadow Link that uses arrows and fights with a master sword. It can get hectic on screen with multiple enemies and friends alike. Practically every enemy defeated becomes a Shadow minion you can use, so gone are the days of simple Zelda menus. This game is massive, but very good though. My wife loves Breath of the Wild, loves puzzles, and this one whether on TV or handheld is a welcome addition.

Loved this game and all the charm it brings to the franchise. Playing as zelda is so refreshing fpr the formula while integration of BOTE mechanics is done well.

Fan of the Zelda franchise, so bought this to go with the collection. Graphics are the fun kiddie style and the point. Game play is fun and enjoy the different levels.

My boys loved it! They've played through a couple times. They enjoy the puzzles. It's one of the best aspects of any Zelda game. Plays similar to the originally, with better graphics obviously.

Fun little game that incorporated all old school Zelda features with a twist of new ones! I’m loving the gameplay as it involves a lot of puzzle solving and there are multiple ways to solve it

Really fun game! Love links Awakening and this was great too

I'm a diehard Zelda fan. I wasn't as excited for this game as I was for TOTK, but I broke down and bought it the day after it came out. It's an awesome Zelda game with a very different approach that I think holds true to the classic games. The easiest way to describe it is if they took the Link's Awakening remake game engine and made a BOTW style map with TOTK mechanics. SPOILER: you DO get to play as Link at times (which is my favorite part). Overall I'd say it's a worthy addition to the Zelda series with a very fresh approach to a classic game. There's also some pretty cool lore that addresses topics almost any Zelda fan has probably thought about before.

This is a real cute game but don’t let that fool you because it is definitely a game worthy of the Zelda franchise. Very cool and clever puzzles and dungeons to solve and finally Zelda takes center stage.

Another great addition to the Zelda lineup and this time it features Princess Zelda herself. Everyone in our family enjoyed it from our 7 year old to the adults!

Great game. Fun gameplay, story, and graphics. I would highly recommend this game. A bit of a twist from the previous titles but no spoilers. Just know, the game is great.

Ever wonder what it would be like to play as Zelda in the Legend of Zelda? Here's a game that actually plays for its namesake as the titular Princess Zelda (that's right, the guy's name is actually Link). This title features a conjuring mechanic where your wand can create learned items to aid you in your quest--a stool to hop up to higher heights is a basic example. It'll hold your attention to the end and you'll want to keep it to play it again.

I loved this game. Zelda as a playable character was fresh for a mainline Zelda game, but it was the echoes abilities that did it for me. This game was like Zelda meets Brandon Sanderson’s Stormlight Archive series. Tri is basically a spren, lending itself to be formed into all sorts of weapons to get past dungeons, bosses, enemies, and puzzles. Abilities improve as you level up, too. The Rifts were like Shadesmar to a certain extent, and the main big bad, Null, was similar in personality and actions to Odium. I know this game isn’t for everyone, but it checked all the boxes (and then some) for me! I will definitely replay it in the future!

Haven’t actually finished the game yet but it’s really cute. It’s in the style and obviously using the same game engine as the remake of Links’s Awakening for the switch. It’s great that they released this because TotK in my opinion wasn’t as good as I had hoped. I would rather have one of these games every year or two than go 6+ years between titles. I’ve owned pretty much every Zelda title since the gold cartridge on NES and this one has great throwbacks to so many of the classics. The new mechanics are also a lot of fun.
