Customer Ratings & Reviews

The original version on Game Boy was my first entry into the series and remains my go to for Zelda games. This new remake is a great way for new fans to enjoy the same core gameplay with some welcome refinements. The art style isn't my cup of tea, but I'm biased towards the original.

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

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

I never played this one growing up I wasn’t a fan of the crappy graphics on the game boy by the time it came out I was a little too old. Playing this now as an adult on the Nintendo switch was amazing. It’s one of the best legend Zelda games that has ever been made.

The original Link's Awakening is among my top games of all time. I played it so much as a child, and this game is such a fantastic recreation, my kids are having a blast with it. It's great to share these experiences with them and relive my childhood at the same time.

Great game even though i purchased the wrong one. I was supposed to get the new one and i guess this one is from 2019. They all look the same to me.

We love Zelda and we have the first and loved it so much had to have this one. It didnt disappointed. This is more fun than the first. We been playing for many hours since Christmas and just barely scratched the surface. This is gonna be a epic game!

One of the greatest Zelda games on switch today, never played the original. I finally picked this up, and really liked the story. You should play this for yourself, if you’re looking for a Zelda game on switch!

Its a good remake and the visuals are awesome. It felt like a dream playing this game to the end. I rush to beat it due to having a backlog of incomplete games and managed in about 10 hours but I felt like I missed some side quest. Worth the buy!

I grew up playing this game on the Game Boy Color. On every car ride, I would be mashing away at this game. What was surprising was how much I remembered when playing this new version. The clay style graphics are amazing. This is definitely a must own for switch owners.

I've always been a fan of Zelda since the original. However, Link's Awakening is by far the best game and story telling I've played, in a long time. The controls were prefect and easy to maneuver. I'm hoping they re-master previous Zelda's games for the Switch soon.

if you like the ole school version of Zelda this is for you! I haven't played video games in 20+ years. and i LOVE THIS game! and with all the waiting around in cars for appointments because of Covid, this is perfect! im so glad i bought it!

Fun game but the original zelda was my favorite played it on the big console and my tv dont know why tge original cant be made for the switch

I’ve always loved this game. It is beautiful in the new switch version. Also exciting to be able to get more hearts and seashells and some other new extras really enhance the game-playing experience. If you are a Zelda fan, you will not be disappointed!

My son loves playing Zelda Links Awakening! His favorite is the animation on this game.

I loved playing this game. I remember playing it as a child and I actually knew were some of the secret areas were in the game. I love the 3D world they updated it to. I recommend the game to those that want to replay it on an updated system.

Great game. Reminds me of original Zelda and they throw in some Cast members from Mario game. You need to use online walkthroughs to help go thru the game but it’s a fun adventure! Must have for your switch collection.

This was fun, yet challenging. It can be finished rather quickly if adventure games are your bread and butter. I got through it in a week.

Zelda: Links Awakening is a faithful remake to the original Game Boy classic. It’s obvious that game developer Grezzo put time into making the original playable for modern audiences. The new art style showcases the power of the Switch, however the game does chug when loading into a new area. The only real problem I have with this game is the fact that there is no substantial new content. The new dungeon builder mode, inspired by Mario Maker, won’t hold you over for very long, so if you played the original this game won’t be worth playing.

This is a great game for any Legend of Zelda fan, and is just as good if you are new to the franchise. The puzzles are great and the game plays well in portable handheld mode. I absolutely had a ball playing this game and hope Nintendo remake more classics from the gameboy.
