Briefly about The Legend of Zelda: Link's Awakening
The Legend of Zelda: Link's Awakening first appeared in 1993 on GameBoy, then came in 1998 on GameBoy Color in refreshed colourful version. In 2011 Link continued his adventure on Nintendo 3DS in order to finally reach his current destination of Nintendo Switch in 2019.

The game's plot takes place after the events of A Link to the Past, the hero Link travels by ship to other countries to train for further threats. A storm destroys his boat at sea, and he washes ashore on Koholint Island. To escape the island he must find eight musical instruments that will awaken the slumbering Wind Fish. Link needs to explore a series of dungeons in order to recover the eight instruments.
How long does it take to complete The Legend of Zelda: Link's Awakening?
The Legend of Zelda: Link's Awakening can be completed in less than five hours. However, wandering around the dungeons or finding every collector's item will take you a lot more time.
Does the remake change the story?
No, it doesn't. The story, and every event in it, is completely intact. Additions are very minimal.
The main change in The Legend of Zelda: Link's Awakening is a level editor. Additionally, you can find some new equipment. There are a few more fast-travel points than in the first game and more collectibles to gather. The sad bit is the lack of a photographer.
