Video games at least partially set in a dream land, or have at least a level in a dream. Recommendations are appreciated.

I didn't include games that aren't clearly set in dreams like Silent Hill, or would 'spoil' the game (Final Fantasy X , and Super Mario Bros. 2, or games that fans theorize are at least partially in a dream like Final Fantasy VIII).

I used TV Tropes to help make this list.

Awesome list!
The PC game Yume Nikki is set in the dreams of a young girl, it's worth adding here.

Check out Dual Hearts on PS2, and Alundra on PS1! :) Perhaps Soul Blazer on SNES as well.
