The OG: Space Cadet Pinball.
There is one I remember hearing about a while back and I want to find it again that was really dope because it was a full on simulator and had a easy to use builder to build your own tables. People were recreating actual tables for it, though only those in the public domain.
Space Cadet was one of Maxis' Full-Tilt Pinball tables. Afaik it's not in the public domain, Microsoft licensed it from Maxis. However, I'm not sure EA would actually enforce the copyright unless someone was making a lot of money off it.
By the way, The Windows XP version has been ported to WASM, and you can play it in a browser.
Space cadet has been reverse engineered and can be installed in Linux through flatpak: https://flathub.org/apps/com.github.k4zmu2a.spacecadetpinball
