    90s Dreams Come True

    If you were a fan of Link's Awakening DC on the Gameboy Color then you'll be a fan of this game. Very much the same game with updated graphics that are incredibly charming (also better controls keep you from having to pause it as much as the GB version). Hard to give a review that isn't bursting with nostalgia for a 90s kid like me, but I really would say this game is worth it.

    I never played the original game, however I wanted to complete as many Zelda games before TOTK and this was one of the games I still had to play. It’s really fun and has an interesting storyline, also the updated graphics make the game so nice.

    Faithful Recreation

    This game was based on a GameBoy Color game and was faithfully brought to life on the switch. The depth of field effect is a little strong but other than that the graphics and toy aesthetics are very nice. Others have complained about frame rate issues but I'm not particularly bothered by them. The new music is really well done and incredibly charming. Overall this remake is awesome, just wish it wasn't full price AAA, but that's Nintendo for you.

    Excellent Remake of a Classic

    Having played most Classic Zelda games, I was really looking forward to this one. It's a fantastic remake with amazing charm and a high, undeniable cuteness-factor. However, don't let the adorable visuals keep you from this one of a kind adventure. The controls are tight, the puzzles are well balanced, and the action is spot on. While there is the occasional slow down, it's over quickly, and never affects battles. Stop reading and get this game!

    Excellent game for old and new gamers that like old 2D classic games. I already knew the story because I played the first 2 original games but in this game I loved all the visual details that were implemented like a 2.5D/3D effect that makes you love more this game. The main story it is acceptable even in hero/hard mode. I suggest to improve your weapons and complete the secondary missions if you want to have everything before the last dungeons.
