Electrician
It is tough being electrician - you have to fight with the crocodiles, you are constantly kidnapped by magic bats or weird worms eat you cables. Either it is description of a game or the author was pretty high...
Arcade game from Synapse Software, in which you become an electrician and face all the dangers electricians usually stumble upon - crocodiles, magic bats, friendly rats or strange green worms, who just love to eat the cables. Yes, I know, the game might not be an accurate simulator, but it is as good as it gets in this job.
In each building we are entering we have to replace the missing electric wires between flats - once we done it the interior lits up and we can move on to the next one. To make things a bit spicier we have to deal with different creepy-crawlies that eat the cable we just installed or hurt us. There are also some that are just in a way, for example magic bats that are able to raise a man and drop him wherever they fancy. Also in some flats we will scary off a burglar stealing a TV or other equipment, catching him will get us an extra life.
After we have done one building we move to another, where more challenges awaits us. But before we do we have to enter the basement full of crocodiles (or alligators, it is hard to determine right now), where using only a flashlight we have to find a way to next building, but the problem is there are walls blocking our move and we won’t see them until we come close to them.
Simple arcade game that aged well, still can be quite fun to play.

Classic racing game with a twist. And some spins. Set in 1970s or 1980s when cars were so much more fun than today and with a criminals in the background.

Duke Nukem 3D was in many ways not very good game - it lacked story as such, the enemy AI was struggling, the levels were sometimes too repetitive, but at the same time it was one of the most enjoyable FPS games ever.
