Kirby's Dream Land is a pretty alright experience. I'm surprised that it's the first Kirby game and not the second, given that it feels like a simplified spin-off, sort of like Super Mario Land.
You control Kirby, who can Inhale enemies to spit them back out, and Float endlessly over terrain, but not much else. Kirby didn't debut with his iconic Copy ability, so the controls are quite simple. Added to that, there are only 5 levels, so the whole experience takes less than an hour to finish the first time around.
With all that said, there's not much to complain about here. It's a simple game, and it does well for what it is. But it doesn't light my world on fire, and I wouldn't have been asking for a sequel if I didn't know what other plans they had for Kirby in the future.
