Tip: to play Railroad Tycoon online you have to press the num-lock key to lay track, don't build iron girder bridges as this will crash the game.

ha.. nope, but the networking version of the game is painfully slow at the start of the game (because the start of the game is mostly waiting for research/build to complete, but now it's quite slow down, because each turn goes stop and wait for all player to press next..)

Also, if you do find some good ones... choose ones you can get the source code to. Playing is one thing. Seeing the juju that makes it work is a whole 'nother level.

There are some cool open source games out there like this city builder one. Probably not beginner friendly though, but could be enough to spark curiosity.
Or if you really want to go old school, there are DOS games like Nibbles. The QBasic source has been floating around the Interwebs for a while now.

There are always the old standbys - Go, Chess, Checkers (or Draughts), Backgammon, Reversi, ...
All of these may be found on the internet, including source code.

This is another site I have used from time to time.
BrowserGames[^]
It is in german, but I think you might get a good enough translation to know about what a game is using your favourite online translator.
Titles I liked as a kid:
Rainbow island,
double bobble,
snow brothers,
bobble shooter,
...
M.D.V.
If something has a solution... Why do we have to worry about?. If it has no solution... For what reason do we have to worry about?
Help me to understand what I'm saying, and I'll explain it better to you
Rating helpful answers is nice, but saying thanks can be even nicer.
