- The remake revises graphics, animation, and sound; many characters receive voice acting in cutscenes and selected dialogue.
- The review calls the jump button the most important quality-of-life change and notes that it makes movement easier.
- Threads of Time tracks the main quest and started side quests; the Hall of Fallen Foes lets players challenge bosses again.
- Some shortcomings remain: Changing the water level is irritating in the Water Temple, while the linear Shadow Temple is weaker, the review says.
