'''Kirby's Adventure''' is the second game in the in the [[Portal: Kirby|Kirby series]] and one of the last games to be made for the [[NES]]. Due to it being released so late, it is known for having some of system's most well-developed graphics.

=Story=
After waking from his afternoon nap without having any dreams, [[Kirby]] investigates the Fountain of Dreams. There, he finds that the [[Star Rod]] has been stolen by [[King Dedede]] and broken into seven pieces. It's up to Kirby to restore the Star Rod and save everyone's dreams.

=Gameplay=

''Kirby's Adventure'' borrows a lot from Kirby's original game, ''[[Kirby's Dream Land]]''. Kirby can fly, inhale enemies, and jump (as well as float by holding in air) as he makes his way through a variety of levels, while facing a variety of bosses. One of the bosses is [[Meta Knight]], making his first appearance in the series.

The most lasting change to the gameplay was Kirby's new copy ability. In the previous game, whenever Kirby swallowed an enemy, all he could do was spit the star back out. Starting in ''Kirby's Adventure'', Kirby gained new powers by swallowing enemies.

=Continuity Notes=

*The instruction manual mentions Dedede's previous attack on Dream Land from ''Kirby's Dream Land'' (the preceding platformer).

=Legacy=

Kirby's copy ability became a staple of the ''Kirby'' series and was utilized in most games of the franchise. ''Adventure'' is also notable s the first appearance of recurring character [[Meta Knight]].
