A lot of video games have a Life Meter or similar which shows you how close you are to losing a life, dying, hitting Game Over or whatever. Most of the time you have to read the meter to find out how much health you have, but sometimes, the meter will do something to let you know and that's this trope. Maybe the meter moves (shaking is a common motion), or maybe there is a Character Portrait or a face next to the meter that winces whenever your character gets hurt or gradually looks more and more angry/scared/sick/sad/tired/beat up. Maybe the character themselves changes in some way (slows down, becomes more cranky, appears tired/injured/sickly, for example). Perhaps it also makes a sound or flashes. Sometimes, if it really wants to get your attention, words or frowny faces or similar might flash onscreen or the Exposition Fairy won't shut up about you being low on health. Running out of health usually invokes the character dying (or at least, being knocked out) in the portrait as well as in-game, the former often accompanied by the classic "dead" Xs replacing their eyes. This is probably a way of getting the player's attention; after all, it's easy to ignore a life meter when it just sits innocently in the corner, but if it starts shaking or the face now doesn't look so good, it might get your attention. Can sometimes overlap with Songs in the Key of Panic (for the "key of warning" type). Critical Annoyance is almost a subtrope: it's for sounds that play when you either have low health or are playing incompetently. Compare Notice This, which is also about getting players' attention. Note: Changing colour does not count as that is extremely common. Neither does greying out a character who is knocked out unless something else happens to indicate they are knocked out. Sub-Trope of Status Line, a display element showing the current disposition of the player, e.g. score, health, ammo, etc. |

Gregory Horror Show's PlayStation 2 game Soul Collector also features this. Whenever the character is given a status ailment, their face in the Heads Up Display will change to fit it - and when they are being chased (or experiencing a horror show) they will be inevitably scared. | |

In Devil May Cry 2, the border of your health bar flashes or pulsates green every time you recover health, whether by picking up Green Orbs or regenerating through Devil Trigger. Otherwise, it flashes or pulsates red when you take damage. Against certain enemies, the latter cue helps in letting you know if your character is still poisoned. | |

In Bloodrayne 1, Rayne's portrait fades into a skull at lower health levels. Her eyes would also become red when her Blood Rage is ready to use, and she even snarls a bit when the powerup in question is active. The bosses have their own portraits, and these too are subject to skeletonization once their health goes low. | |

Toontown Online: The Laff Meter on the bottom left is your Toon's health meter, which is shaped and colored after your toon's species. At full Laff (Health), the Laff Meter has a closed smile. If you've taken some damage, the mouth opens, with the "teeth" shown dependant on the percentage of health left (1-6 teeth). When you go sad (lose), the Laff meter turns green and shows a dead face.note This is also why Griefing is referred to as Greening in the game. You will passively recover health in any Toon Playground, but there are also treasures themed after each playground that replenish health faster. You will also recover from going sad in playgrounds. | |

The first Tom and Jerry video game for Game Boy has a picture of Jerry as the health meter. When Jerry is at full health, he is smiling. Each time he is hit with an obstacle, the smile gradually fades to that of a worried expression. By the time he is fully out of health, Jerry is completely petrified. | |

Primal Rage: If you have the gore enabled, the gauge displays with a long artery-like graphic and ends in a beating heart, and the lower your remaining life, the faster the heart beats. Lose a round, and the heart blows up into a bloody mess. There's also a stun bar that's represented by a spinal column attached to a brain: if it's depleted and your character ends up stunned as a result, the brain crackles with electricity, and upon losing a round, it's fried into ash. | |

In some Fire Emblem games, the health bar will visibly shake when a character is hit with a critical strike. In the 3DS games, critical hits or some skill activations give a little cut-in of the character art along with a Pre Ass Kicking One Liner. However, Fire Emblem Fates animates these, having the characters' facial expressions change. Fire Emblem: Three Houses surprisingly incorporates these - much like the previous example, if characters do a critical hit, an animated cut-in with the Pre Ass Kicking One Liner appears. But if the character is at low health, they will have a desperate or scared looking expression instead. Fire Emblem Heroes also incorporates these, but with a more Fanservice touch to it. Much like the two examples, if characters do a critical hit, an cut-in of that character with the Pre Ass Kicking One Liner appears. But if the character is at below health, they will be portrayed with Clothing Damage instead, along desperate or scared looking expression. |

In the console version of the Coraline video game, the heroine's health is measured by a multicolored half-circle bar with her character portrait going along with its status. Coraline's expression starts out perky and confident when health is full, but turns pouty whenever health starts to dip. When the health bar is nearly gone or empty, she looks anguished. | |

When she dies, her face can be simply mangled like Doomguy's face when he dies in his game, or it can have part of her head blown out if she died to Boom, Headshot!, or in extreme cases, almost her entire head could be removed leaving a stump just above her neck. | |

World of Warcraft played with this - while the character always had a static image, they would either flash red or fade in and out at low health (but only when you targeted them.) Players also could mod this to actually it more or less obvious - such mods were common back in the day. | |

In the SNES Flintstones game, Fred's face is the health bar. When he takes a hit, his eyes cross and his tongue hangs out. One hit from death, and his eyes are popping out of his head and his hair is standing on end. Making it even weirder, the game is based on the live-action movie, so the face is a digitized portrait of John Goodman. | |

Heidelberg 1693: There's one for both the player and one for the bosses. Your onscreen musketeer have an avatar next to his Life Meter on the upper corner of the screen, who gets increasingly bloody and bruised when he suffers damage. When losing a life the avatar turns into a skull until you respawn. All of the bosses have the date of their birth next to their name above their lifebar. When living ones are killed, it then adds the date of their death. Undead bosses take this further with a date of birth, death, and undeath. When they're killed, it adds their date of second death. |

Conker's Bad Fur Day has an expressive Oxygen Meter, consisting of a stream of bubbles coming out of Conker’s mouth. As the stream of bubbles gets shorter, his expression gets more desperate and his face starts turning blue, ultimately drooping if you keep him under water for too long (about 25 seconds). This carries over to the remake, Conker: Live & Reloaded, where you get about 70 seconds of oxygen, and the desperation really starts happening when the last bubble goes at about 15 seconds remaining. | |

In World of Horror, the player's character portrait Shows Damage as their Stamina and Reason depletes. Low Stamina results in the character having visible injuries, while low Reason shows the character looking tired and haggard. If either reaches 0, the character's face will be obscured by a splash of blood. | |

The Sims has several other ways besides the color-changing diamond to tell if a Sim's needs are low: If they're hungry, they will refuse to do tasks and become irritable, unless they are a baby, whereupon they will cry. If they're uncomfortable, they'll also become grumpy, although they'll generally still do tasks. Having to pee also causes grumpiness (although, like discomfort, they'll generally do tasks) and when it gets to be urgent, they'll run towards the toilet. Some Sims who need to pee might also do a Potty Dance. When babies need a diaper change, a green stink cloud will appear on them. If they're dirty, they slowly become visibly dirty and occasionally sniff themselves and then gag. If they're tired, they'll generally act tired. If they're sad, they'll have a dejected expression and, if they're a baby, they'll cry. If this sadness is caused by loneliness, however, they won't indicate it unless it's The Sims 2, whereupon they'll become delusional and start seeing the "Social Bunny". In later entries, their mood will often be shown to the player when the player highlights them. |

Neopets: If a Neopet's hunger goes below "very hungry", they start looking sad (each species has its own "sad face"). Weirdly, if their happiness goes down, they still look happy. If they're sick, they make a different negative face, which doubles as their disgusted face (when they're fed a gross food). If they get given something (such as a food, toy, book, or petpet) they dislike or you type your password wrong, they snarl. | |

Munch's face in Tribal Hunter is used with his health bar to determine how much health he has. The lower Munch's health gets, the more exhausted and beat up he looks in the HUD. Munch's face uses Wingding Eyes when his health plummets to zero. If Munch grows fatter or becomes inflated, his cheeks puff out and his eyes go wide in surprise. If Munch is near the point of exploding from being too full, his cheeks get even more swollen and his eyes are squinted closed from the strain being overly full. | |

In the Animaniacs Licensed Game for the Sega Genesis, the Warners' health bar is on the upper-left corner of the screen, and it consists of a face with its expression changing depending on how much health they have (they can take up to eight hits). If their health gauge is full, the expression is excited, if they take two hits, the expression is calm, if they take four hits, the expression is terrified, and if they take six hits, the expression is tired. If they're one hit away from losing a life, the expression starts flashing. | |

Project Downfall features the protagonist's face on the upper left corner, which can range from having few bullet wounds on his face to being subject to some really nasty Facial Horror whenever he gets anywhere close to death (to say nothing of dying, which can happen very often). The face also makes a crazed expression whenever he's under effect of the pills and gains Fireball Eyeballs when his rage mode (done by holding down the pill button when the andrealine bar is full) is active. His face can even become bandaged during hospital-based missions. | |

The first Clock Tower game features this. While the background is usually a prime indicator, Jennifer's 'health' is represented by by her facial expression, and it changes based upon whether or not she is being attacked by something (such as a crow or most regularly Scissorman). This even carries over to cutscenes. | |

Aladdin (Virgin Games): The health bar in the PC/Amiga version is the face of the genie, accompanied by a hourglass which indicates Aladdin's health by the amount of sand in the upper bulb. When Aladdin's health is at max, the genie is smiling, but the more damage Aladdin takes, the more nervous the genie starts to look, until near the bottom he is biting his nails in anxiety. | |

The arcade versions of Power Instinct first games before Groove on Fight have the character's side face with the health bar, which changes from normal to being-hit animation when you were hit by the opponent. This got more dramatic in the first game, where the portrait's backgrounds also change of colors from blue to red when you got hit and the character's face got more agitated when the health bar is low. | |

In Warlock (which is based on the first two films in the Warlock series), your health comes across as a fine face with red eyes, but every time you take damage, your face gets chipped away from your bits of flesh until it's close to being a skull. If you can't heal up quickly before your last hit turns you into a skull, you're dead. | |

M.U.G.E.N: When playing as (or against) SCP-999, both SCP-999 and its opponents will have "happiness bars" above their heads, both types of which have a face. SCP-999's "attacks" don't deal damage but will fill up the opponent's bar, causing the initial angry face on it to become happier and happier until it turns into SCP-999's smiling face when filled, KOing the opponent by forcing them to Happy Dance. Opponents' attacks don't deal damage to SCP-999 but will decrease its happiness bar, which causes the initially happy face on it to become sadder and sadder until it turns into a crying face when depleted, KOing SCP-999. | |

Quake features Ranger's face as an additional health status indicator alongside the current health indicator. The face will contort in pain with every hit taken. Similar to Doom, Ranger's eyes will glow yellow when picking up a Pentagram of Protection, and when a Ring of Shadows is active, the status bar shows only a helmet and a pair of eyes, which can combine with the Pentagram's eye glow and makes the status bar face an empty helmet with two angry narrowed glowing yellow eyes inside. The face also changes into a psychotic Slasher Smile with bloodshot eyes whenever the Quad Damage is active, but sadly this doesn't overlap with any other powerups. | |

Doom: The heads-up display includes an animated picture of Doomguy's head. As he takes damage, his head looks more and more bloodied and bruised, getting worse at every 20% lost. When the player has almost no health left, Doomguy's head is bleeding from his nose, mouth and scalp, his eyes are severely bloodshot, and his posture is slumped, though still attentively peeking left and right. With an Invulnerability, the portrait will display Doomguy with his eyes glowing a pale yellow similar to a Pinky's. Receiving damage will cause him to grit his teeth in pain and look in the direction the damage came from, and if the damage is high enough, he'll make a shocked face (though this feature is bugged in the original release and only shows correctly in source ports). The status bar face also sports a huge evil grin when you pick up a new weapon. | |

In Kingdom Hearts (with the lone exception of Kingdom Hearts: Birth by Sleep), the current playable character's portrait will show them wincing when they get hurt. And when their health gets low enough, they will look exhausted.
