All in all, Kirby's Dreamland is a great game for beginner players and ones that enjoy a fun, but short, experience.

Kirby Dream Land es un título que los amantes del género de las plataformas y más aún los poseedores de la consola, Game Boy, deberían tener casi obligados, y no teman por su duración, que se verá arreglado en cuanto terminéis el juego y que se explica en el texto de arriba, si no fuera por el apartado de la duración sería un juego casi perfecto.

Digital Press - Classic Video Games
Aimed squarely at a younger audience, Kirby's Dream Land still manages to provide a fulfilling, though less challenging gaming experience to older players. Though not worth the price to an older gamer when it was new, it should not be overlooked at a thrift store, flea market, or second hand gaming shop.

The short amount of time I spent with that “bonus quest” almost made playing Kirby’s Dream Land worth it. Almost. That quest doesn’t take away from the fact this game is extremely short, with four stages of intermediate length and one extended boss gauntlet. It also didn’t make me forget that this early version of Kirby was a pretty generic hero with none of the sweet powers he’d later gain. While future games were loaded with cool abilities and many diverse worlds to get through, the series’ originator just doesn’t pack the punch to make much of an impact.
