Kirby’s Dream Land 2 is a side-scrolling platforming video game developed by HAL Laboratory and published by Nintendo for the Game Boy handheld video game console. It was released in Japan on March 21, 1995, in North America on May 1, 1995, in Europe on July 31, 1995, and in Australia on November 22, 1995. Kirby’s Dream Land 2 continues the adventures of Kirby from Kirby’s Dream Land and Kirby’s Adventure, adding three animal friends to aid Kirby in battle.

It can be played on the Super Game Boy, and gives slight changes to the game, such as adding a custom color scheme, a special game border, and a few new sound effects. The plot follows Kirby, a resident of Dream Land. The Rainbow Bridges that connect the seven Rainbow Islands have been stolen by an evil force called Dark Matter, who has possessed King Dedede, intent on conquering Dream Land. Kirby sets out to defeat Dark Matter, accompanied by three new animal friends, Rick the hamster, Kine the fish, and Coo the owl.

After traveling through across the Rainbow Islands, Kirby reaches the possessed King Dedede and defeats him. Kirby’s Dream Land 2, like the previous Kirby titles, is a platforming video game. Kirby is able to walk, swim, and fly throughout a variety of levels, using several allies and enemy powers in order to reach the goal at the end of each level. However, a variety of obstacles lie in his path. These obstacles range from pits to enemies.

If Kirby touches an enemy, touches a dangerous obstacle, or is hit by an enemy’s attack, Kirby will lose one bar of health (out of six total health points). Kirby can recover lost health by eating food. The player starts the game with three lives, one of which is lost each time Kirby’s health is depleted or he falls off the bottom of the screen. The game ends when the player runs out of lives, although they can resume their game from the most recent save point by choosing to continue.
