Kirby travels through five areas of Dream Land to reach King Dedede. At the end of each land, Kirby must do battle with one of King Dedede's top goons, in the form of a [[Boss]], who will drop one [[Sparkling Star]] upon defeat. After defeating Dedede and collecting the last of these stars, Kirby uses them to inflate into a giant hot air balloon, and carry Dedede's castle all across the land, showering the stolen food back onto the kingdom. That done, Kirby returns to normal size and lands on a podium, to be cheered by the denizens of Dream Land.

*In the video [https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=ZUY2AtBD6Sk "Development Secrets of the Original Kirby <nowiki>[Grab Bag]</nowiki>"], Masahiro Sakurai explains that in his original draft for how the [[health]] and [[damage]] system would work in ''Kirby's Dream Land'', Kirby would be sent flying if hit by most enemies, and get sent flying farther the more damage he's taken, only being defeated if he is knocked fully off-screen before it can re-center on him. While this was not used in the final game, Sakurai points out that a version of this concept would eventually resurface for the ''[[Super Smash Bros. (series)|Super Smash Bros. games]]'' (on a further note, this original damage system would be implemented more-or-less exactly for [[smashwiki:Adventure Mode: The Subspace Emissary|The Subspace Emissary]] in ''[[Super Smash Bros. Brawl]]''). On why the idea had to wait so long to be implemented into a game, Sakurai states: "I had forgotten about it. Totally and completely."
