''Kirby's Dream Land'' is the first game in the ''Kirby'' series, releasing on the original Game Boy in 1992 with five stages. Known for its short length and simplicity, and an outlier in the wider franchise for not featuring Kirby's iconic [[Copy Abilities]] introduced in ''Kirby's Adventure'', players controlled [[Kirby]] as he traveled through Dream Land, picking up food, [[Superspicy Curry]], [[Maxim Tomato]]es, and 1-Ups. The five stages were Green Greens, Castle Lololo, Float Islands, Bubbly Clouds, and Mt. Dedede. Mt. Dedede was the last stage, effectively a boss rush before facing King Dedede, and upon clearing it, players were given the option to begin again in a more difficult "Extra Game". Certain platform layouts are copied from level layouts from the original game, most notably the boss gates in Castle Dedede, the arena where Lololo and Lalala are fought in Castle Lololo, and the cliff where Kirby rides his first [[Warp Star]]. | ''Kirby's Dream Land'' is the first game in the ''Kirby'' series, releasing on the original Game Boy in 1992 with five stages.

The hand that occasionally appears to indicate scrolling is based on the gloved hand that appears on the Game Over screen of the game, both acting as the cursor for the choices and coming to life to either wake Kirby up to continue or flicking him off the screen should the player decline to continue. This hand reappears throughout the series to serve the same role in Game Over screens. | The hand that occasionally appears to indicate scrolling is based on the gloved hand that appears on the Game Over screen of the game, both acting as the cursor for the choices and coming to life to either wake Kirby up to continue or flicking him off the screen should the player decline to continue.
