According to Wikipedia’s entry on the ancient Spectrum game Monty on the Run, the titular Monty is a union-busting mouldywurp who must flee Britain and find a way over the treacherous English channel to find criminal safe haven in Cold War Europe. I do not remember this surprisingly intricate plot, but the graphics, gameplay and Rob Hubbard’s incredible soundtrack are unforgettable.
More unforgettable, still: this YouTube video of Monty on the Run, recreated with a curious hamster and a maze of pixel-perfect dioramas.

Funny and adorable.
I know it’s juvenile, but the ghost hitting it in the butt was a great moment.
Good stuff, BBG!

Oh, it’s old.
I guess it sucks then. No use in showing people stuff that exists already.

Holy Sweet Jesus Mother of Baby Mary! – That soundtrack is uh-fscking-mazing!. It’s as good as M.U.L.E. or anything Koji Kondi did!
