I feel like I've played this game before for some reason...

В целом, игра понравилась. Под конец игры стало душно, слишком уж много головоломок из-за которых складывается впечатление, что ты на работе, а не в игре.
Картинка красивая, как в портативе, так и в доке.
Один раз пройти, можно. Два раза, не нужно)

It's a good remake, it's stylized and really unique. It's a good short game that has a lot of character.

This one has Ballad of the Windfish in it


VERY GOOD GAME. Artstyle is very charming and it is very fun.

Great 2d Zelda, with interesting premise and solid world and dungeon design. Suffers from framerate drops in overworld that break the immersion.

The game is fun, but I feel like I wasn't quite the right audience for it.

I really wanted to like this game more than I did. The 8-direction movement and performance hold this game back. I don't understand why they would lock Link's movement to a grid when the enemies clearly don't abide by those rules. It feels awful to play with a joystick.

The game is super charming and an absolute joy to go through! Kind of wish it wasn't $60 as it would have been a 9/10 otherwise.

Also the dungeon maker is a drag and I wish I didn't have to go through it to play it to get all the heart pieces.

A dreamy, goofy Zelda game with a pretty heartfelt story. In a world where nothing feels right, Link's Awakening is just more fun dungeon-crawling

literally just the GBC game again, dungeon editor isn't much of an addition.

If you had asked me which Zelda game was inspired by David Lynch, I would've said the one where the moon crashes into the earth because of a creepy mask salesman, but this probably would've been close

I wish that Nintendo does remakes for the Oracle games in this style please

I arrived on the video game scene pretty late in the overall timeline so the original Link's Awakening was definitely before my time. This remake is an absolute gem, though. The art style is adorable and the music and atmosphere are just so charming. Even though the world is much more compact than a lot of other Zelda games, and is further constrained by the overall presentation making it feel like a little toybox, it's remarkable how much content there is and how much there is to discover. There was one boss that briefly stumped me but overall I really have no complaints.

divertido, mas um pouco simples demais eu acho sla, n é mto pra mim, mas continua sendo bom, joinha

Era tudo... Era tudo um sonho

Do caralho por mais remakes assim

REALLY enjoyed my time with this one although im not used to traditional zelda dungeons.... not sure if its just me being bad but i have to look up the solutions to these dungeons multiple times

After dropping this and then giving it another go, I can conclude it's good i guess. The reason I dropped at first is because I basically hadn't re-wired my brain to do zelda puzzles (i say that because i find zelda puzzles to be EXTREMELY different to literally any other type of puzzle, and it requires my brain to just think completely differently). After playing it again, I can see why I dropped it initially. Basically, I do not CARE if the original released decades ago, some stuff here really shows it's age when it shouldn't, in puzzles and beyond.

Otherwise, the music ranged from ok to reasonable bangers (kinda underwhelming tho tbh), the story and characters are pretty cool. The style/visuals grew on me a lot, but the movement is just unforgiveable. This is basically what I meant by the game can show it's age. I DONT CARE IF YOU DIDNT MOVE FULL 360 IN THE ORIGINAL GAME, I WANT IT NOW IN A 2019 VIDEO GAME ON THE NINTENDO SWITCH. This would have been less frustrating if you could at LEAST use the d-pad, but i guess they forgot that existed, so now im forced to suffer with 8-direction inputs on a JOYSTICK.

tl;dr, great visuals, music was good-ish (it depends), story/characters good, puzzles were good when they wanted to be. The main problems i have are when the game forgets it's 2019 and holds dearly to game design choices from decades ago.

Glad I replayed tho, it was worth :DD
ps. no im too slack to condense my ramblings, shut up >:)

Fun, cute, and sometimes surprisingly difficult - this was a fun departure from your typical 3D Zelda.


Great, fun update of a classic game. As it is so faithful to the original there are some BS old school annoyances in there, but you go in expecting them

No le pongo las cinco estrellas por las bajadas de FPS constantes y la afrenta de sustituir la quest del fotógrafo por el tedio absoluto de las mazmorras de Dampé. Dejando eso a un lado, es el Zelda de mi infancia solo que CUQUI AL MÁXIMO.

Now I want to buy a big diorama with all the little guys from the game
