Watch this full long play of *The Legend of Zelda: Link's Awakening, a unique top-down action-adventure where Link awakens stranded on the mysterious Koholint Island. Unlike other Zelda games, there's no Hyrule, no Princess Zelda, and no Triforce—just a dreamlike world full of quirky NPCs, challenging dungeons, and a mysterious Wind Fish sleeping inside a giant egg. This playthrough showcases the classic Zelda gameplay reimagined with charming handcrafted-style visuals, smooth controls, and remastered music. You'll journey through puzzle-filled temples, unlock new items like the Roc’s Feather and Hookshot, and face off against memorable bosses like Moldorm and Facade.
