Worum geht es bei The Legend of Zelda: Link's Awakening?

The Legend of Zelda: Link's Awakening erzählt eine der ungewöhnlichsten Zelda-Geschichten, denn ausnahmsweise geht es nicht um die Vernichtung von Ganon oder die Rettung der titelgebenden Prinzessin. In dieser Geschichte erleidet der Held Link auf einer Seereise Schiffbruch und wird an den Strand der Insel Cocolint gespült. Von der jungen Marin gefunden und gepflegt, will Link die Insel wieder verlassen. Ein Uhu erzählt ihm, dass er dafür den Windfisch wecken muss. Dieser ist ein mysteriöses Wesen, das in einem riesigen Ei hoch oben im Gebirge über dem Eiland schläft. Generell spielt Link's Awakening sehr viel mit den Motiven "Schlaf" und "Traum" und hat darüber hinaus einige sehr schöne ruhige und auch melancholische Momente.

Was ist besonders bei The Legend of Zelda: Link's Awakening?

The Legend of Zelda: Link's Awakening ist ein Remake, du bekommst also das bewährte Zelda-Prinzip aus der Vor-”Breath of the Wild”-Ära. Du bereist nach und nach die Oberwelt von Cocolint und steigst in insgesamt acht Dungeons, um die nötigen Musikinstrumente für die Erweckung des Windfisches zu sammeln. Besonders schön ist, dass das optionale neunte Dungeon "Labyrinth der Farbe" aus der DX-Version für den Game Boy Color im Switch-Remake ebenfalls enthalten ist. Obwohl Link's Awakening keine Neuinterpretation des Originals ist, sondern das identische Spiel im schickeren Gewand, überzeugt die Spielmechanik. Die Erkundung der "Mini-Open-World" mit ihren abwechslungsreichen Gebieten hat unter anderem dank der eingängigen Steuerung absolut nichts von ihrem Charme verloren. Ebenso wenig haben sich die Kämpfe gegen Gegner wie Moblins oder Käfer-Stachis verändert. Höhlen und brüchige Wände verbergen Schätze wie Herzteile oder Rubine, Minispiele wie Angeln oder eine Floßfahrt sorgen für Abwechslung im Abenteurer-Leben. Das Highlight von Link's Awakening sind allerdings die Dungeons, deren Schwierigkeit nach und nach angenehm ansteigt. Durch Items, die du nach und nach im Spiel findest, hast du immer das Gefühl noch stärker und mächtiger zu werden.

Für wen ist The Legend of Zelda: Link's Awakening geeignet?

Mit Link's Awakening macht Nintendo im Grunde alles richtig, sodass alte Hasen aber auch junge Hüpfer das Spiel genießen werden. Das Remake von The Legend of Zelda: Link's Awakening weicht nämlich fast keinen Millimeter von der Vorlage ab. Verändert wurden die Grafik, die Musik und andere Kleinigkeiten, die eine Auffrischung benötigten. Doch die Handlung, das Spielgefühl, die Rätsel und die Verliese konntest du schon auf dem Game Boy genießen. Der Kern des Spieles ist auch nach über zwanzig Jahren mehr als überzeugend. Vorausgesetzt, du hast Freundinnen und Freunde, mit denen du dich über das Spiel unterhalten kannst. Sonst bist du wohl ab und zu gezwungen, in eine Lösung zu schauen. Link's Awakening wird dir gefallen, wenn du die alten Zelda-Spiele magst, gerne neben dem Kämpfen auch knobelst und Spaß an der Erkundung einer neuen Welt hast. Wenn du hingegen ein Zelda-Spiel haben willst, das sich wie Breath of the Wild spielt, liegst du mit diesem Teil der Reihe falsch. Trotzdem auch nach mehr als zwei Jahrzehnten macht Link's Awakening Spaß und zieht einen durch die tolle Präsentation umso mehr in seinen Bann. Gerade die neu vertonte Musik macht hier einen großen Teil des Spielerlebnisses aus. Der orchestrale Soundtrack webt ein dichtes Netz um die Diorama-Grafik des Spiels.

Wie lange dauert The Legend of Zelda: Link's Awakening?

Die Spielzeit der Neuauflage deckt sich mit der Spielzeit des Game Boy-Originals. Das sind durchschnittlich 14 Stunden und 18 Minuten, samt Extras beträgt die Spielzeit 16 Stunden und 41 Minuten. Erledigt ihr alle Nebenaufgaben aus The Legend of Zelda: Link's Awakening, dann könnt ihr gut noch einmal zwei Stunden draufrechnen. Abseits der Story kannst du in Link's Awakening unter anderem alle Zaubermuscheln sammeln, alle Herzteile ergattern und dir die magische Lupe ertauschen. All das summiert sich natürlich, sodass neben den Stunden, die du bei den teilweise recht schwierigen Rätseln knobelst und auch mal in der Lösung spickst, einen langen Spielspaß hast.

Fun, both heartwarming and heartbreaking
Format: Kindle
Only my second first person written selection, I am still getting used to that aspect, but unlike my first, I enjoyed that the story was told through both MCs. A great enemies to lovers, forced proximity, fated love etc, that resonated to me. There were some small twists that I could see coming, but also a few that I didn’t quite see until the characters were also seeing. Personally, I am more interested in the story than the spice, but with that said, it was well seasoned! I am kind of new to the spice world so I can’t say for sure how this would rate, but it definitely had some heat. I am very glad I happened across this author, and I do plan on also reading the next book….if nothing else, just to see for myself the “transformation” of the characters I’ve grown to love!

😍😍 BEST DEBUT NOVEL EVER
Format: Paperback
I’m having trouble finding accurate words to describe the way this book made me feel, but I am going to do my best. To start off with basic elements, the character and world building are phenomenal. I feel a strong bond to not only the two main characters, Ara and Rogue, but to each and every character introduced throughout the book. The author did a stellar job of giving each of them unique personhood. All of the scenes are beautifully described. So much so that throughout the entirety of the book, I could see every scene: the towns, the castles, the meadows, the landscape. I have had difficulty with this and with distinguishing between outlying characters while reading in the past, but I did not have to think to remember details of world or character building because they flowed naturally within the story and were described well. I have read book series before that made me want to be a part of that world, but I actually felt like I got to step into Auryna and Ravaryn! The plot twists!! Although this is not a suspense novel, it still had me on a rollercoaster of emotions and on the edge of my seat from beginning to end. I haven’t cried actual tears over a book since I was in high school (and I’ve read a LOT). This book finally broke the floodgates in the final few chapters. Multiple times. And we love a good cliffhanger. It truly made me FEEL. THE SPICE is a solid 3.5/5. Some of the scenes had me flushed, some had me taking notes, some just had my jaw slack and my mouth hanging open. Bravo, JD Linton, bravo. The relationships: friendships, family, romantic, ALL of the relationships in this book have so much meaning. The author does a great job at making you feel the love, the anger, the peace, the frustrations, the safety, the familiarity, etc. between the characters. Ara and Rogue. I can not say enough and I also do not want to say too much. Just know that I feel like I know them both, to their core. I know what their childhood looks likes, their darkest moments, their biggest fears, their dreams and passions, what they want in life… The POV switches were seamless. I am so happy this author decided to let us see from both sets of eyes. I can not wait for book two after that cliffhanger. And there is SO much potential for at least one prequel, I can’t wait to see where this author goes! I hope this series continues and flourishes. Fingers crossed!

Amazing!
Format: Kindle, Format: Kindle
This book was phenomenal, I devoured it within a few days! For this being a debut novel, it is fantastic and I would’ve thought the author was a seasoned author. I have zero complaints about this book. Let me start by saying that the world building was phenomenal. I could picture everything in my head because of how detailed it was — that’s how good it was written. And I absolutely love the “captive/captor” trope so much, it’s become one of my favorite tropes, so I was pleasantly surprised to see that this book had that. I loved the banter between Rogue and Ara — they’re both snarky and witty, plus with the romantic tension, it made the dialogue that much better. Speaking of romantic tension, yes there is spice but not so much of it that it overrides the plot, which I loved. For me, this would probably be on the 3/5 level of spice. This book had a ton of plot twists and I thoroughly enjoyed it.

High on Tropes and Satisfaction
Format: Kindle
This is a great Romantasy book full of action, adventure, and everything you look for in this genre. I won’t lie: it does kinda feel like the author found every common trope from every successful book of this kind and threw them all into this novel. But if it ain’t broke, don’t fix it. Especially in romance, there’s a large audience who has specific expectations, and they want them every time. Nothing wrong with that and many times I’m one of them. I have no idea what defines a spoiler honestly, so spoiler alert!!!!!!! Tropes include: Only one bed at the inn/bar Dissatisfaction with life before hunk appears Lost royalty The chosen one Montage of dress up time followed by shocked hunk Forbidden romance between two from rival peoples Power that cannot be controlled, simply guided/asked Gathering intel at the inn/bar FMC who knows how to fight/use weapons well There’s probably more but no need to list them all. Good story and I would recommend!

AMAZING debut novel!!!
Format: Kindle
Plot ⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️ Spice 🌶️🌶️.5 Romance 💘💘💘 Vibes ⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️ Dual 1st person POV - Ara (26) & Rogue (39 - but looks mid-20s: they can live hundreds of years so this isn't that large of a gap as it could've been which I heavily appreciate lol) Tropes: enemies to lovers, fae/human wars (deep hatred for each other), shifters (dragons- MMC can only partial shift with wings), one horse, one bed, touch her and d!e, found family, abduction turned to freedom The Last Storm is the debut novel from JD Linton and let me tell you, you guys NEED to read this. The plot was engaging and the editing was was amazing (especially for a debut novel). Our FMC, Ara, is stuck in her gilded cage longing for a life outside of her small town. She uses her books to escape and live vicariously through the pages (honestly, relatable). After her father announces her betrothal to her childhood friend (to whom she has no romantic feelings for), Ara tumbles unknowingly into a desperate plot trying to stop the humans from slaughtering the Fae. As one can expect from an enemies to lovers / kidnapper/captive romance, Ara fights her attraction and lust towards our MMC, Rogue (the King of the Fae), for as long as she can. Upon seeing Ara for the first time, Rogue is instantly aware that she is his fated mate (not a spoiler). Since she is the General's only daughter, he plans to abduct her and use her as leverage to stop the brutality. During Ara's time in Rogue's captivity, their banter and chemistry continue to rise until they finally boil over and come together (quite literally, and many times I may add 😉). Here's what I LOVED: - Rogue continuously seeks advice from his elders and deeply respects their opinions and life experience and tries to implement their recommendations - Rogue makes many mistakes in the beginning but we see him actively work on not repeating them as the book progresses. The level of self-awareness and his ability to change his behavior was impressive - The magic system is intricate and we have only scraped the surface. As the series continues and Ara progresses in her powers, I'm sure we'll get to see more of this. I absolutely LOVE the messaging system that is used in this book. - Ara's struggles are so human and so raw. She is experiencing so much guilt and pain and hurt and getting to see her work through each of these emotions is inspiring. Especially as her and Rogue get closer and she learns she can lean on him as well, that she is not alone. - While this is the start of a series, there is NO cliffhanger! There's a bit of a teaser of something major that is going to happen at the start of the next book, but it's not a cliffhanger in the sense that we aren't sure if someone is going to live or d!e or if they'll be separated. For that, I am very thankful! This book was so much fun that I will definitely be returning to book 2, even if it takes several months (or longer since this is an debut author) to publish! - Lastly, the cover is GORGEOUS! And I love the title! I'll copy a few of my favorite quotes below so you can have a little taste of the author's writing and the world she's cultivated. 😊 Top Highlights from The Last Storm On days like this, when my heart was heavy and my mind clouded, I resorted to books— to escape, to forget, to find freedom where I had none. If I were to marry him, my face would always be turned to the window, searching for more, and if not that, I would be a shell of the person I am now. I stepped back to admire her, thr0bbing at the sight. She was the most beautiful woman I had ever seen. To ever exist. Nothing, no one, had ever deserved to be worshiped more. All men should be made to kneel before her. But she would have to settle for me. The taste of her met my t0ngue as my scent merged with hers, forever branding her. Mine. I l!cked the wound. Hers. Completely and utterly hers. I didn’t claim her in ownership. I claimed her as my one. Devoted myself to one. With that mark, my body and soul were bound to her. I would never be with anyone else, emotionally or physically. It would be her or no one, until my last breath. “Scream my name. Let everyone know who I belong to.” I had never really cared about the weather before, but now, clear skies meant everything to me, and I was grateful to see another calm morning. “There will never be another woman for me.” He paused. “Ever.” I stilled at his words. “What… Why?” “This”— his thumb slid down across the mark—“ is a symbol of… surrender. I know you believe that it was my claim upon you, but it wasn’t. It never was. I bound my body and soul to you, little storm.” “I also know that it is more than this tiny, insignificant mark on your skin that binds me to you. It’s you. All of you. Your strength and resilience. Your determination to endure no matter what fate throws at you. Your love for love and stories and hope. You are entirely the opposite of everything that I am and I would gladly wear your shackles if it meant I could have you.” My mate. Mine. And then everything shifted and I understood. I understood everything. The surrender. The deep, soul-craving longing. Bound. I was bound to him. Body and soul. Entirely his. “I would’ve waited forever,” he whispered back, understanding. Seriously, everyone.. add this to your TBR!!
