I don't know specifically of those games will work.
But if you got a used computer for the kids, what would it be? If it'd
be a more recent Mac, you'd probably want those same games anyway. So
why not get one of them, try it on the TiBook, and then see if you need
to replace it? You'd still use the same game on the Mac that replaces
it, so there'd be no need to return it.
