Might be biased but not only does the FF7 story hold up close to three decades later but it was also the catalyst for introducing Japanese RPGs into a western market.

BattleBorn, Lawbreakers, Skull&Bones and Concord; the biggest f* to AAA (and "AAAA") industry. You crash, so the Indie rise.
Minesweeper.
I would have said Doom, but I think in the long run it's Minecraft or Skyrim.

I'm saying pokemon. It's still a dominant franchise today. It's inspired countless spin offs and copy cats. It made gaming social and the connector for Gameboys a required accessory. Pokemon Go was a covid time revolution. The series is likely responsible for a sizable growth in the gaming market in the late 90s and early 2000s. People who never played a video game can identify Pikachu, and might even have a plushie. We are closing in on 30 years of pokemon being a dominant franchise.
