    This game is so much fun. If you like Zelda or fun too down scrollers, it’s a must have. Much easier to navigate than original - it’s beautifully done. Loved the gameplay and music.

    My son and daughter already played the other Zelda game(s). So they had to have this one. It didn't disappoint. They are hooked. Very handy during the COVID-19 lockdown.

    Links Awakening is one of those must-play games that gives you feeling of nostalgia and the stimulation you'd expect from a 1st party Nintendo game. The modern switch remake is the same game, but it has more than just a little overhaul. It comes with a dungeon creator, some inventory screens and new menus. The wider viewing angles which is replaced with smooth screen transitions that helps the world come to life. The game runs a dynamic resolution. The primary resolution\frame rate you'll see is 720p 60. The art style and design might not be for everyone, but if you're a fan this recreation is a wonderful recreation on switch!

    This may not be worth the $60 price tag to those who aren't big Zelda fans, as it feels more like of a $40 game, given its length and relative difficulty, but the game is a really fun nostalgic trek for your Nintendo Switch. It suffers from some obvious stuttering at times, which can be annoying, and it is limited by its time, but it's a beautiful game that's fun to play.

    I haven’t played a Zelda game like this before. I know it’s a remake. So that aside it is good I love the art work if it. It’s fun and can be challenging which keeps me playing.

    Exactly the same but totally different

    Amazing how they managed to bring the Gameboy original back nearly square for square and have it feel exactly as it should while also feeling totally new. The UI, menus, and controls were obviously a much needed update that modernize the game, but the presentation is what makes this game worth the $60. Link's Awakening was a cute, unique, but, ultimately, weird Zelda game. The updated graphics and soundtrack perfectly re-capture that for those who played the original and conveys it to a new generation. I'm glad this classic got the face lift it deserved. Hopefully they can use this as a base to do the same with the Oracle games.

    This remake of the 1993 Gameboy game is fantastic. The graphics look great and the music is even better. Very nostalgic and Eagle's Tower is still just as difficult.

    The Legend of Zelda: Link's Awakening Review

    The Legend of Zelda: Link's Awakening was an amazing childhood memory for me when I played it back on the original GameBoy. Seeing the re-release of this game on the Nintendo Switch with new gameplay and puzzles brought nothing but excitement. There is a reason people keep going out and buying anything with the name Zelda on it. This game does not disappoint. For old gamers looking to recapture the nostalgia or new gamers looking to experience a Zelda game, this game is a great way to start that Zelda journey for them. Highly recommended for any video game lover.

    This game is a great reminder of how great the original Link’s Awakening is. This game is a beat for beat remake of the original game. The only flaw is some frame rate drops.

    This is almost a perfect game. The visuals, gameplay, and music are all absolutely incredible! The only real issue is some slight framerate issues when moving between areas.
