Customer Ratings & Reviews

This game reminds me of A Link to the Past, which is a huge win. I love the top down Zelda games, and Link's Awakening delivers in spades. All the weird quirks really make the game stand out and have a unique identity. I love the platforming pieces, the chain chomp, the goombas, and all the other weird little gimmicks the game has to offer. Perfect game for anyone who likes classic adventure games from the NES and SNES era.

This Game is a gem to many players around the world it originally released in 1993. And 26 years later this amazing HD remake came out and on this and like my other game reviews no spoilers only the first two dungeons. first the cutscenes too this game are really good looking they seem to have an anime-ish art style. and the difficulty depends on the player, if you are a new Legend Of Zelda player. then you should give this one a try its not too Hard and not too Easy. but the puzzles may cause you to think some are Harder than others but some are optional. For a Core Legend Of Zelda Fan If you have not played it go for it. but i can't say the same for if have already experienced this game because the $60 Price Tag is "nothing" to sneeze at. it may not be worth it because this game is quite short even when collecting all of the collectibles in the game. but this still is a gem! 3 and a half out of 5

Great challenge and a must for any Zelda fan. Wife is a big fan of all the Zelda games said this is a spin on the old school ones.

Great classic Zelda game. Feels like playing the old gameboy version but with updated graphics.

I never played this Zelda game on the DS so I was super excited to get a chance to play the remake. Definitely doesn’t disappoint!

Love this game... my kids love it as well, I have always been a Zelda fan from the original Nintendo, so this is a great classic!

I never played any of the “original” incarnations of Link’s Awakening, and I am having a blast with this. While I did thoroughly enjoy Breath of the Wild and other “modern” Zelda adventures; this game scratched a nostalgic itch while giving me a gaming experience full of modern fidelity. Several dungeons and boss fights are truly unique, I was pleasantly surprised. In fact, despite having several other games available via Switch online, I am already for them to give the other “classic” games this treatment.

I was on the fence but decided to get it after seeing many good reviews. It is way more fun than I expected. I cant put it down.

Like most Zelda games, this one was fun. Although the storyline was a little lame, I played it through.

I went in with mixed feelings as LoZ is one of my favorite franchises, not sure what to expect. I was not convinced yet that it was a faithful remastering of the classic, but in true Nintendo fashion with the aid of Grezzo it was more than I imagined. If any criticism is necessary then the only thing that I can say is it doesn't feel as dark as the original versions. Otherwise, it is exactly what you want out of a LoZ game.

Excellent game, really takes me back to my childhood. I’ve enjoyed every single aspect of this game and it’s still pretty much the way I remembered as a kid. Definitely worth buying it and definitely worth the experience again. There are added game experiences and differences with enhance graphics and music. If you had this game is a kid, this will definitely bring back a lot of good memories.

If my kid and her friends playing this are any way to measure the fun level of this game well.....this is a really fun game!!

I wish I had gotten this game sooner. It is an amzing game with great graphics and story.

Great game and better remaster to the classic. Overall amazing gameplay and story for both fans and newcomers alike. Its artstyle and music is beautiful, if you or someone you know never gotten a chance to play on GBA. Pick this up and enjoy.

One of my absolute favorite games as a kid on the Game Boy, this remake of a classic Zelda title (albeit one that was always a little different from the traditional Zelda-style games) reminded me why I loved the game so much. Challenging dungeons, interesting puzzles, and a game that's no easy cakewalk. But I love the characters, the gameplay, and the MUSIC is FANTASTIC! If you enjoyed any other Zelda game in the past, you would be remiss if you didn't play this one!

Amazing graphics and remaster of a cult classic game! Love the reimagined world but still the same story!

Great classic game. Zelda never gets old. I recommend this game for any fan of Zelda!

I never played the original game. The reboot seems to be worth the price though. Can't go wrong with a Zelda game like this.

They did good job keeping the essence of the game intact while making it easier to play along with adding the dungeon builder.

The original GameBoy game was one of my favorite LoZ games and this new update is such a great remaster! Great game all around!
