Kirby's Dream Land is a 1992 platforming video game from the Kirby franchise for the Game Boy, and the first installment of the Kirby series. Kirby's Dream Land was developed by HAL Laboratory, published by Nintendo, and desgined by Masahiro Sakurai, the same person who created the franchise. The game also introduces the series' main protogonist, Kirby, and antagonist, King Dedede. Kirby's Dream Land is the series' most successful installment, having sold over 5 million copies worldwide since 1992.
Story
Not everything is well in peaceful Dream Land. The self proclaimed monarch, King Dedede, and his goons have stolen all the food in the Land. Kirby gears up and ventures his way to the the King's palace to retrieve the food from the evil King Dedede before all Dream Land's citizens starve.
Gameplay
Like most Kirby games, Kirby's Dream Land is played in a 2D platform. The player who controls Kirby must successfully pass each level and avoid attacks from enemies before losing all possible health points. Kirby can run, fly, and puff out air to destroy any nearby opponents. Kirby can also inhale enemies and objects. Once Kirby inhales an opponent or object, Kirby can either spit them back out as as a star projectile and destroy the object or opponent that hits it, or Kirby can swallow it. However, when swallowing an opponent, Kirby does not gain any new ability, as his trademark Copy Abilities do not debut until Kirby's Adventure.
Along the way various items will appear on the road to assist Kirby. These items enchance Kirby's attacks, allowing Kirby to destroy enemies. In some cases, these items must be used to defeat a boss.
- Microphone - The Microphone is an item that Kirby can inhale, and spit out to defeat opponents. However, when a microphone has been spit out, its projectile will devaste and destroy any opponents it encounters before leaving the screen. The same concept is used for the Mike.
- Bomb - Once Kirby inhales it, Kirby can spit it out to devastate multiple enemies it encounters before leaving the screen. This same concept is used for other abilities in the series like Bomb and Crash abilities.
- Super Spicy Curry - Inhale it, and Kirby will continually spit fire and burn anything on sight, but only for a little while. This same concept is used for future fire based powers like Fire.
- Mint Leaf - This item allows Kirby to stay permanently puffed up, and shoot multiple gasps of air continually, until the power runs out. This item is mainly used when battling Kaboola.
- Invincibility Candy - This allows Kirby to become invincible for a short time. With it, Kirby can destroy any enemy he runs into. This is the only item to reappear in future games.
