Customer Ratings & Reviews

Such an amazing game with good puzzles from classic zelda Links Awakening. Sound/music quality was done very well. Removed a star due to slight loss of FPS early in the game, nothing that makes the game unplayable though.

This remake lives up to the original version. The graphics feel overly cartoon at first, but you get used to them pretty early on. The story and the memories brought back are great for me, and my 8 year old is currently enjoying her play through. If you're not careful, you won't notice time flying by, and you'll beat the game more quickly than you expect to. Good way to spend a few hours a week.

So fun and refreshing to explore through this beautiful world! Fantastic job of revisiting this game with the new possibilities of current graphics put to best use here. The world/island is so lush and vibrant. Puzzles and challenges are just enough to be hard without being daunting like some of the newer games. This is truly in Nintendo Wheelhouse this one. Highly recommend for whole family!

Amazing from beginning to finish, uncover the mystery of the island piece by piece.

Fantastic game for those looking for a nostalgia trip or newcomer's to Link's Awakening. It still has some of that old-school feel in that not everything is directly given to you, but that's what makes it fun. There are some framerate dips in some areas but its pretty mild.

Great remake of the game. It is worth the play thru on the Switch.

I have no words to explain how this game made me feel, since the original version was my first Game Boy game, it is a wonderful game, a beautiful story and a lot to do, Zelda games never disappoint you

This game is amazing! Awesome graphics, classic but modernized feel and a great addition for any player playing it for the first time. Loving it so far but dislike the frame rate drops. Overall, a must own for Zelda fans.

Interesting new take on the familiar Zelda gameplay but nonetheless a must have for one’s collection

This game rocks, super nostalgic feel with newer chibi graphics.

The graphics on this game are outstanding and well fitting for the story and gameplay. The puzzles and hidden things to find make the challenge, combat is simple, exploration is open and areas unaccessible note that you've missed something somewhere. The dungeon builder adds replayability and a fun component to sharing the game with a friend. Previous Zelda themed amiibo add dungeon pieces.

This remake is nothing short of a masterpiece. Since breath of the wild(best game ever created) has been out for almost 3 years, we needed another Zelda experience to shake things up. This game is gorgeous and a joy to play. It feels somewhat dated in the way link moves but I’m sure that was on purpose to maintain the classic feel of the game. Hands down a must buy. Zelda for life!

Graphics, music, action and storyline are captivating and greatly entertaining.

cool game really fun great music and graphics def, recommend

Enjoyed the beautiful cartoon style graphics and easy controls to the game music

The Legend of Zelda: Link’s Awakening was easily one of the best and classic Game Boy releases. This handsomely done Switch remake rebuilds the original game from the ground up in a great kind of toy box graphical style with a level of detail and depth that reinvigorates both its timeless story and classic Zelda gameplay for the original gamers and a whole new generation of gamers as well.

I gave it a 4/5 since I got it during Black Friday for $40. If it was $60 I will only give 3/5 if it costs $60. It does have a good story, but it is a remake of the old Link Awakening almost 30 years ago, and the game design idea is often outdated. Also, the enemy spawn mechanics of the game is not friendly. They will respawn quite quickly and for most of the time, it is annoying. It is acceptable if it is a game 30 years ago because of performance limitations, but it is not a good idea to keep the original design till today. If you are really a Zelda fan I would certainly recommend buying Skyward Sword HD instead.

Every layer of this game is amazing. Gameplay, visuals, and music are perfect.

Very good game overall. Decent graphics and music.

If you are a fan of the original Links awakening I can tell you this is such a faithful remake of our beloved Links awakening. It's basically the same game and feel but with so many nice quality of life upgrades. For zelda fans, this is a MUST have. Kind of wish they would do this treatment to more games like Oracle of Ages and Seasons and even the Original game!
