Customer Ratings & Reviews

The art style of this game is amazing and is a true throwback to older games. It plays along the style of older Zelda games, but it is just beautifully done. I was compelled to play this until the final boss with no hesitation.

I’m old. I played the original Zelda game, the one that came with a paper map. You only needed to use the A & B buttons for weapons and the rocker button to move up, down, left, and right. It’s the only game I ever completed. I’ve been a very casual gamer since then, they’ve just gotten too hard for someone who only plays an hour or two a week. This version of Zelda is right up my alley. The graphics are way better but the game play is very similar and my daughter agreed it wouldn’t be too hard for me. So far I’m loving it and if you’re like me you will, too

Never played the original, but this game is such a great 2D Zelda. I loved playing through it, it had a different story from the regular Zelda games and the gameplay was great. Totally recommend

Love the art style and game play . Was a nice update of a classic Zelda . Was fun the whole way through

Love it, haven't been able to stop playing since i bought it

This game is a beautiful remake of the classic 1993 links awakening, and is very sweet and short story.

Zelda link awakening nintendo switch version is a great game nice remake it good for Zelda collection

Amazing game thanks to Best Buy for a great deal and fast delivery!

I finished this game recently and absolutely loved it. I was hesitant about picking this one up for the full price. I heard it was a remake of a GameBoy title and worried it would be short and simple. It was completely different than I was expecting and then exactly what I was expecting. It plays like a classic Zelda game but this remake gives it a fresh coat of paint. So adorable and fun, you'll definitely get plenty of time out of this game. The soundtrack is great too! I've been listening to the ending song on repeat :)

Perfect game if you want to revist an old classic with modern graphics. LOZ is peak!

Great game, still playing through it. Definitely runs better on Switch 2

if you love classic zelda, this is a must buy. loving it so far .

Love the game. Having it in my collection brings back memories

Links awakening is Classic, Nostalgia, What’s not to love. This is classic Zelda at it’s best ! The graphics are old school and refreshing to see on Nintendo Switch, Much better than botw in my opinion, Links Awakening is a must have, Go buy it now if you haven’t already, You won’t regret it , I sure don’t.

Loved the original on Game Boy Color, this version of the game is excellent. The vibrant colors, the cute character style, added content with creating extra dungeons! Anyone that likes Zelda games will love this game for sure!

Bought this for my niece! Looks great! I remember playing this when I was a child and it is nice to be able to share it with the next generation with updated graphics!

Great game and it brings back all my childhood memories! Bought for my nephew so the next generation can have a blast with Link!

Great remake. This provides many quality of life improvements over the original, and it's a great standalone Zelda game.

I remember staying up all night long playing the original game. 3D graphics are a definite improvement. Not sure if this version has the same story line or not but I remember staying up all night long for several nights in a row playing the original.

This is the best way for someone new to Link's Awakening to play the game. The changes Nintendo made make this a joy to play. However, the game currently suffers from framerate issues which I would not expect a $60 game to have. This is also a short game at about 10-12 hours, so that price starts to make you question if it's worth it. If you are a fan of Zelda or have never played it before, this is a classic Zelda game worth experiencing.
