nibbles was my favorite. Reading the code as a 13 year old I learned that they doubled y resolution by using lower and upper square ascii characters. It inspired me to find creative solutions for problems.
I had fun changing the barrier wall sizes in nibbles to make some levels easier. Having the source accessible and easy to change was quite useful.
