Awakening Companion is a map and checklist app for The Legend of Zelda: Link's Awakening. It covers the Game Boy Color version (DX) and the Nintendo Switch remake. Pick the version you play, and the maps, markers and your progress follow it.
THE MAPS
For the DX version you get the overworld of Koholint Island and all nine dungeons from Tail Cave to the Color Dungeon, Eagle's Tower floor by floor. Open a dungeon right from its entrance on the overworld. The maps show the items, Heart Pieces, Heart Containers, Secret Seashells, the trading items, the instruments, songs, keys, compasses and stone beaks, and the enemies and bosses.
Tap a marker for a short description of where it is and how to get it. The Heart Pieces, Secret Seashells and trading items also come with a picture. The map filter shows everything, only what you still need or only what you already have. You can also show the original screen borders and set your own markers.
For the Switch remake there is the map of Koholint Island with all 50 Secret Seashells and 32 Heart Pieces, most with a picture, plus the warp points, the telephone booths with hints, the dungeon entrances, shops and houses.
CHECKLISTS AND STATISTICS
Checklists for items, hearts, trading items, collectibles, dungeon items, dungeon keys and instruments. Tick something off in the list and it is marked on the map as well, and the other way round. The statistics show your progress for each category and each map.
ENEMIES, PHOTOS AND SPEEDRUNS
75 enemies and 30 bosses and mini-bosses with a description, from Octoroks and Moblins to the boss of every dungeon. All photos of the DX version with their location and how to get them. The speedrun leaderboard shows the fastest runs from speedrun.com for both versions, sorted by category; it needs an internet connection.
NOTES AND AI ASSISTANT
Notes with folders, tags and sketches keep your own plans in the app. On a tablet or an unfolded iPhone Duo they open right next to the map. The AI assistant answers questions about the game; it needs an internet connection and becomes available after an in-app purchase.
GOOD TO KNOW
Maps, pictures and checklists are stored on your device and work offline. Your progress is saved on your device and synced through your iCloud account. A backup file or a Sync-ID takes it to another iPhone, iPad or Android device. Press and hold the app icon to jump to your checklists or the last map you opened, and find places of the maps right from Spotlight search.
The app is made for iPhone, iPad and the folding iPhone Duo as well as Android phones and tablets. The interface is fully available in English and German, and also in Spanish, French, Italian, Dutch, Russian, Japanese, Korean and Chinese. In those languages, names of places, items and enemies use the official names from the game where available; the descriptions are in English.
Awakening Companion is free with ads. In-app purchases unlock the enemies, the photos, or all pages at once. A separate one-time purchase removes the ads, and the "Fully unlock all our apps" subscription covers both in all of our companion apps.
