Walkthrough

The Switch remake of Link’s Awakening is played in nine chapters: eight dungeons, each ending with a boss that guards one Instrument of the Sirens, followed by the Wind Fish’s Egg. The chapters below follow the order that collects everything with the fewest return trips, so you also pick up the Pieces of Heart, Secret Seashells, trades and tools that each new item unlocks.

The Color Dungeon opens once you have the Power Bracelet and the Pegasus Boots and gives a Red or Blue Tunic. Dampé’s Shack adds Chamber Dungeon challenges after every dungeon, and the Trading Sequence runs through the first six chapters. The 100% Completion Checklist lists everything in one place.
