Customer Ratings & Reviews

This was my sons first top-down Zelda experience and we both had a blast beating it together. The shiny graphics are fun and the gameplay is satisfying. My son had the whole map memorized and I was the one to do the boss battles, it was a very fun game for them both of us to play together!

If you are a fan of Zelda or of old school adventure games I would highly recommend picking this up. It plays like the old-school Zelda games but I love the art-style and graphics they went with. They also throw in some interesting concepts to change it up so the gameplay doesn't feel as dated.

I’ve had a lot of fun playing this game, I did get it a lot later than most people but it made me want to play my switch more as it brought back childhood memories

Bought this for my husband and 5yr old son for Christmas. Hubby beat it fairly quickly compared to the newer version, which took him quite some time. However, the quicker he beat it, the quicker our son got to play, so no big deal. They both enjoyed it a lot.

THis has been a fun game and the first one I have actively tried to get to the end on. While I'm not there yet, the game has kept me engaged enough to keep working at it until I get there. The graphics and game play are much improved from the original releases back on the Gameboy and SNES.

This new remake has been so well made, it's an awesome adventure with style!

This is a remake of one of the first games i ever played on gameboy and they did an amazing job. I couldnt be happier with how it turned out. There are moments where they added new monsters in but they all work with the style of gameplay and i would give it 6 stars if i could.

This is a great remake of the original. The graphics are delightfully cartoony, and the controls are very tight. I hope they use the engine to remake a few of the other Zelda titles (Oracle of Ages/Seasons, anyone?). I'd really like to see the original NES Zelda given this treatment, too.

Played this game back when it was on the gameboy and can tell you this remake is very well done! The game feels refreshing to play and manages to keep the same feel I got back when I played the original. Definitely would recommend to anyone who has/hasn’t played any of the Zelda games!

Very fun game with Beautiful landscapes and graphics highly recommend for Any Zelda fan

Link's awakening is a very fun game to play its challenging enough to keep you going. there are a lot of easter eggs in the game which will take some time to find as you play. Very intuitive, good graphics, good storyline. This is one of those games that you can play over and over.

Great game and great graphics on the switch. The only problem is priced high for only around 14 hours of gameplay. Still much like the original and new and improved graphics. If your a Zelda gamer and love the games the hours don’t matter only playing the game. Highly recommend to anyone.

Most people played the original Link’s Awakening and then bought this one. I did the opposite, this made me go out and buy the Gameboy DX version and digital one on the 2DS XL. Fun and addictive game so I had to stop myself from playing for a while to regain my sanity and my nights back.

This game is just beautiful. It's the same game with minor quality of life improvements. And of course the art style. At times, the game looks like little toys in a diorama being brought to life on my 4k samaung qled. The game is beautiful, nostalgic and fun. Cannot reccomend enough.

This game is based off a gameboy game, that was rereleased on a gameboy color now for the Switch. Game plays like the old ones but it has more buttons and amazing game overall. If you are on the fence about it I say give it a go I wasn't to sure at 1st but it's one of my favs now.

A very detailed remake of the classic Gameboy game. It was the very first Zelda I ever owned and will always be special. The updated visuals and music is wonderful. Only complaint is as of launch, there are some noticeable framerate issues. Nothing game breaking but still very noticeable

I got this game for my younger son and he likes Breath of the Wild bit given this is an older gamer with updated visuals but still retains the harder difficultly of those newer to the Zelda franchise, it can be a little frustrating. But that is not the games fault it's just how games have changed compared to when this one was originally released. It's really an instant classic again on a new system. Just be aware that you will need to do more than just walk around exploring in this game to level up enough.

If you haven't or have played the original on the Gameboy, this game is definitely worth the playthrough. such a good story. There's a bit of a framerate issue here and there, but its not gamebreaking. it could be patched, but who knows if Nintendo will do it. Overall, great game to play.

The Legend of Zelda Link's Awakening was my first ever Zelda game on my OG gameboy. When the remake came out I was super excited of course to revisit my favorite childhood game. The new design and graphics are amazing. All in all, I really enjoyed this nostalgic game.

This game is an amazing remake of The legend of Zelda Link's Awakening from the old Gameboy, great graphics, control mechanics, music and an overall nice gameplay, if you are new to the game or you want to revive the old adventure, look no further, you will enjoy this game.
