What type of game is this?

The Legend of Zelda: Link’s Awakening is an action-adventure video game featuring elements such as exploration, puzzles, and real-time combat. The game is played from a top-down perspective, so you see the game world and all characters from a semi-overhead view, which was very common during the era of the first Nintendo consoles, like the original Game Boy. The game is linear, meaning you do not play it in any order you choose, unlike the last two Zelda games, Breath of the Wild and Tears of the Kingdom. This game is a remake of the original The Legend of Zelda: Link’s Awakening with new graphics, new gameplay, new game elements, yet still a fresh take on the original.
