Kirby's Dream Land 3 is the Super NES follow-up of the Dream Land platformers of the Kirby series. This game is known for being one of the last Nintendo games released on the Super NES in America.

Story

Dark Matter has taken over Popstar and possessed a number of inhabitants, including King Dedede. Kirby and Gooey enlist the aid of a number of their animal friends for help in defeating Dark Matter and saving the world.

Gameplay

Kirby's Dream Land followed the established Kirby formula. Kirby runs, jump, flies, and inhales enemies to copy their abilities.

Kirby's animal friends return in this game and are expanded. Most of the animal friends give Kirby a ride. The exception is Gooey. Gooey has the same abilities Kirby has and can be controlled by a second player.
