I also love the creative \"deeper into your own subconscious\" take on the theme.

Such simple graphics and yet they drive home the exact point the game wants to make. The combination of \"sanity\" and \"health\" into one bar makes the game very approachable because there's less to keep track of, and in its simplicity its very easy to pick up and just go.
