Customer Ratings & Reviews

Link's Awakening is over 20 years old, yet by simply adding a beautiful new art style and leaving the game as is, it is still fantastic. It's a classic and the switch version is the absolute best way to play this game

Great game, beautiful graphics, much prefer this to the open world games, and it's not a massive time commitment. Enjoyed this on the the gameboy color, and it's even better on the switch.

The remake is a wonderful homage to an amazingly classic Zelda game. Pros - It plays great Wonderful story Challenging (but not too much) puzzles. It looks lovely and a bit cute. While I was initially taken a bit aback, it does fit the charm of this title specifically. Cons - A bit of slowdown in certain areas (I am hopeful for a patch) Some of the puzzles are a bit tedious to find the answers to. Overall highly recommended!

I played this game a ton when I was a kid on the original GameBoy and this is the perfect upgrade to it. Gameplay, visuals, music, everything about it is top quality that you would expect from Nintendo.

Zelda series does it again, this time bringing back old school visual look and feel. Not old, but rather updated and clean. The story is always the best part of Zelda but it helps to have fun visuals.

Great product. Great for younger kids. The strategy of the game is impeccable. Links and awakens your brain and allows you to become a legend just like Zelda!

Based on what my friends told me about this game, I can say it is definitely a very great game to play! Definitely recommend playing!

My first time ever playing this and it was a blast. I didn't think I would like the art style but it quickly grew on me and somehow made me nostalgic by how faithful it feels as a portable gaming experience.

The Link’s Awakening remastering brings everything from the original Game Boy game and makes it better. Unfortunately, it doesn’t have much of anything that the original didn’t have, meaning no new dungeons or endgame content. Newcomers are certain to spend more time in their first play through than us veterans that remember most of the puzzles, but the quality and nostalgia alone are more than enough to justify the price tag.

Great game. Beautiful art style. This is a remake of a game that was made in the 90s updated well by Nintendo. If this is your first Zelda game it would be a good introduction!!!!

It’s a sequel to A Link to the Past which ismy favorite Zelda of all time. The new art style is just f-ing adorable. Classic top down Zelda gameplay. I love it.

Cute and fun art style with just the right level of challenge for the puzzles. The only gripe I have is there are some elements that I don't see how you would know what to do without consulting online guides.

If you played the original Game Boy release, be prepared for a flood of nostalgia. While this isn’t the longest Zelda game, it scratches the dungeon-puzzle itch and deserves a place in your collection!

The game itself is wonderful. Brought me back to the game I played on my Gameboy as a child and wonderfully redone for the modern Switch console. Leaves something to be desired performance-wise, which is very unlike most first-party Nintendo titles. When you change areas, the FPS drops pretty heavily and pulls you out of the immersion. Nothing gamebreaking and would still recommend. Hopefully it can be patched to fix.

A respectful re-imagining of the Game Boy classic, Link's Awakening on the Switch brings so many parts of this world to new life on the screen. The game adds some depth to the experience beyond what the original had, but not too much. If you're a busy gamer, you should be able to complete this in a long weekend of play. Unfortunately there are some slowdown issues throughout, but they aren't so bad as to be unplayable.

Everything from the classic GameBoy version is there with a new diorama art style on top. Good for a revisit but even better for newcomers. Framerate shows that it could have used a little more polish.

Great games super neat take for Zelda puzzlin adventuring all that jazz

Great game remastered, hours of play time and playable on any switch

Great remake of an already great games. Hours of fun to be had. Great updated version. Runs great on the switch. Would be great to get other updated versions for other Zelda games for the switch.
