I'm going to go ahead and point out Dark Sun: Shattered Lands here. The games that used the Dark Sun engine (including Al Qadim: The Genie's Curse) were not as well known as the Gold Box games but were a lot of fun in their own right.

Voting for Dark Sun: Shattered Lands and Thomas Was Alone in this one.
Dark Sun is an easy SSI fan vote. Thomas Was Alone is a charming puzzle platformer that's well-written, makes sparse assets do a lot of work, and knows not to overstay its welcome.

Pokemon Snap. As a 10 year old what an amazing game that was!

Abstaining for the moment. A few beloved games in here, but I'll need to consider whether I can honestly say they're BGE material. And yes, this is coming from a guy who voted on Woah Dave!.
[EDIT] Screw it, who am I kidding? Shattered Lands is the obvious choice for me.

Even in the depths where no light reaches, a few fanboy games ruin it for everyone else. (See also: Super Mario Land)

Snap was awesome guys. Taking pictures of Pokemon in their natural habitat, like in a safari made my imagination become real.
The only two problems I had with it was 1) Very short game and 2) Professor Joke... I mean Oak's judging criteria was... flawed at best.
