On the Apple IIgs, there is a game called Zany Golf.  On the last level (Energy)
there is a little mouse hole on the right side of the screen.  You can see little
mouse eyes periodically peeking out.  They are usually white, but about once every
45 seconds or so, they flash red for an instant.  If you hit the ball into the hole
while the eyes are still red, you complete the round and you get to go on to a
secret round.

Also on the IIgs, Defender of the crown has a cheat where when you are doing a
castle siege, if you hold down a certain combination of Apple, option, control and
shift keys (I can't remember which ones) the catapult will always hit its mark.

Arkanoid II  (IIgs) has a level editor if you press 'c' on the title screen.

Dungeon Master (IIgs) has a kids dungeon if you hold down Apple when you click on
the Enter button.
