Kirby's Dream Land is a platforming video game released on the Game Boy and the first installment of the Kirby series. Kirby's Dream Land was developed by HAL Laboratory, published by Nintendo, and designed by Masahiro Sakurai. Kirby's Dream Land was the series' most successful installment until Kirby and the Forgotten Land in September 2022, selling over 5.13 million copies worldwide since its release. It was also later released as a Player's Choice title. In 2011, Kirby's Dream Land was released as one of the launch titles on the Nintendo 3DS's Virtual Console. In 2012, Kirby's Dream Land was included as one of the playable games in the Wii compilation title, Kirby's Dream Collection Special Edition. In 2023, Kirby's Dream Land was included on the Nintendo Switch Online Game Boy channel.

Kirby's Dream Land is a side-scrolling platformer title, and follows suit from other such video games of the age, with a few key differences. The game - and its titular protagonist - are designed with beginners in mind. Instead of restricting the player to a single jump and limited attacks, Kirby is able to hover indefinitely in the air to get over bottomless pits and other hazards. He is also fairly hardy, able to take several hits before being defeated, whereas most other platformers would have the character defeated in one or two hits. Kirby is also equipped with his trusty inhale, which allows him to simply eat most of the enemies on his path, and spit them out to defeat other enemies. As such, Kirby's Dream Land is easy to complete, with only five stages and relatively easy boss fights interspersed, but a hidden bonus version of the game lets players go through again against tougher enemies.
