    Excellent updated version of the game boy classic. A good game for younger players too. Reading is needed to play the game.

    Good game, but a bit expensive.

    Solid, fun remake. But $60 is a bit much. It probably should have been $40 max. Also Dampe's dungeon maker is really restrictive, boring, and pointless. But you can mostly ignore that feature unless you want bonus hearts and a spare bottle that wasn't in the original game.

    While the story is a bit short, the upgrades to graphics and adding on the dungeon creator gave Links Awakening a refreshing add on. While I've never been a fan of the top down playing, the diorama style doesn't cause many problems and it's just cute to look at.

    The Legend of Zelda: Link's Awakening: Dreamer Edition is by far one of the best remakes by Nintendo this generation.

    Of course Nintendo did a fantastic job on this remake. The Collector's Edition is the one to get if you can find it!
