Kirby's Avalanche (Kirby's Ghost Trap in the PAL version) is an SNES game developed by HAL Laboratory and released by Nintendo in 1995. It was a clone of the Japanese game Puyo Puyo, the same game used as a base for Dr. Robotnik's Mean Bean Machine, with the graphics changed to star Kirby. It was one of four Kirby games released on the Super NES.

In the game, as in all Puyo games, groups of two colored blobs fall from the top of the screen. You must rotate and move the groups before they touch the bottom of the screen or the pile, so that matching-colored blobs touch from above, below, the left or the right. Once four or more same-colored blobs touch, they will disappear, and any blobs above them will fall down to fill in the space.

As a game released later in the SNES's life cycle, this game has bright colors and beautiful graphics. The sound consists of remixed tracks from previous games; as the game boots, a sampled "Kirby's Avalanche!" can be heard.
