bruceb pointed out this game E6, a stripped-down version of D&D in which the characters more or less stay at 6th level.
This really sounds like fun to me, actually. 6th level or so was the point in my campaign where the characters felt powerful but comprehensible--I think there's a lot that could be done with such a game.
I have a few posts on the rpg.net (though I don't read rpg.net) and enworld manifestations of E6 (both as Will)
I like E6 particularly combined with ritual magic of some sort. For instance, maybe you can scribe a scroll for spells you don't know... need to cast something high level? Figure out the recipe, and hope you succeed. Or Incantations from UA.
