Oldies but goodies:
(cdrom required)
- Frogger
- Lemmings
- Load Runner
New(er) stuff:
- Spore Galactic Adventure
- Cid meyer’s Civilization series
- Age of Empires Age of Mythology (loved playing this with my sister growing up, definitely need multiple real people though)
If you have a modern PC with bells and whistles, I’d be willing to bet this game would be a hit for a kid

Worms W.M.D is also super fun but only in multiplayer
