  There is a program that plays ROGUE (Unix version, not 20 version) 
written in C for the UNIX operateing system.  Playing games of any 
kind is interesting from an AI stand point.

  Most arcade games involve little strategy and much reaction 
time/image recognition.  The strategy component could make a nice toy 
AI program, the reaction time component would just be a hardware 
problem (or would it?), and the immage recognition would be another 
domain for Image Understanding.
