I think naming a single game is hard, but most influencial franchise in gaming would have to be Mario. Between the platformers, smash, kart and the music it is just so widely recognizable.

Eh, Super Mario Bros was super influential, and kicked off the Mario franchise. So I’d probably pick that.
Or maybe Pong, which normalized digital gaming. Or maybe Space Invaders.
I think those are both valid picks. If you can only pick one game it’s going to have to be one that changed how the world looked at video games.
