Lol at recognizing Microsoft Windows Solitaire & Candy Crush.

Seriously, I’m not sure if I’d give it to Melee personally, especially over Myst. Myst was transcendent for its time and inspired many of the games after it.

I can see Windows Solitaire, as it has been historically significant and quite prolific (much like Minesweeper), but Candy Crush definitely needs to wait its turn.
