What I want to accomplish is to create a series of web based educational games which will have very basic graphics, allow two or more players on the same game, and have some small amount of interacitvity between dissimilar games (IOW, there may be a math game that sends 'level achieved' info to the chemistry game, modifying that game's level for the user). Any input appreciated, and apologies if this is the wrong forum for this.

It sounds like you could even consider DHTML/Javascript for these things... is it mostly static screens (e.g. no animation or side scrolling) interacting with graphics? You can drag things with DHTML/JS, etc... the benefit here, of course, is not requiring any plug-ins at all.
