Beautifully remade graphics bring Link's Awakening into the modern era, Revised score is excellent, Still a ton of fun in a post-BotW world
Chamber Dungeon isn't as fleshed out as I'd like it to be, Pricing is a little too high for my tastes, Frame drops suggest Link's Awakening pushes the Switch to the limit

A captivating visual overhaul revives the decades-old handheld game, Fun in the sun and perilous puzzle-solving adds up to a delightful Zelda adventure, The expertly designed map packs a lot of challenges and secrets despite its small size, Koholint's isl
Making and playing dungeons never manages to feel like an impactful addition, Occasional frame rate drops distract from the otherwise slick experience
Beautiful graphics, Clever puzzles and level design, Almost identical to the original
High price, Dungeon creator doesn't add much
