 Planet Geek!: Review: Yohoho! Puzzle Pirates
They've kept to the spirit of the net, and most (not all, but most) of their games are still Java based, and therefore run just about anywhere.
The tasks are, naturally, puzzles, such as Carpentry (fit the puzzle pieces into wooden holes in the decking), Bilge pumping (the easiest game - very similar to Bejeweled), and gunnery (a difficult game, I never quite mastered it).
Keeping the water out is a combination of two puzzles -- bilge, which removes the water out of the ship, and carpentry, which repairs the damage to your ship.
