POKÉMON LEGENDS Z-A
While you can sleep in this game, it is not only optional, but actually detrimental. You are required to stay up all night battling other trainers in battle zones.
0/10 These kids are teenagers, they need to sleep. My wish is that everyone in the city sleeps on time.

RHYTHM DOCTOR
While the player themselves cannot sleep, a major theme of the game involves the consequences of overworking, and the tiredness coming from it. Many characters are given doctor's orders to rest.
8/10. Details how bad it can be if you don't sleep. The doctors need more sleep though.

There are several beds you can sleep in in the game. While optional, I appreciate the ability to be well rested.

SUPER MARIO BROS. 2
The entire game takes place in a dream.
10/10. Mario is so well rested, fully ready for the day ahead. No wonder he can enthusiastically exhibit theory when he says 'Lets-a-go'.

Promotional Art for Minecraft
MINECRAFT
There are consequences for not sleeping in this game through Phantoms.
However, this game also teaches that you can stay awake by literally fighting sleep. This is very harmful.
5/10 for showing the consequences of not sleeping, but still this low for being able to ignore/fight them.

0.5/10. Technically user created content can allow sleeping, so I will grant mercy with a half point. I will forcefully tuck it into bed, forcefully give it a bedtime story, and forcefully give it a good night's kiss.
