Okay, well that's fine; strategic games certainly could be reasonably
implemented in CGI with pure HTML, but tactical games or games with a
high degree of interactivity like Nethack or (say) Empire definitely
would not.

There are plenty of strategy games out there that are implemented with
CGI; the first popular one that I'm aware of (it may indeed be the first
4X game in CGI) is Stellar Crisis.  Since then there has been a huge
proliferation, such that there are several entire Web sites devoted
simply to listing Web games.  I have links to some on my Web page:
