If your PowerPC is the PowerBook running OS 10.5.8, you can't. In earlier versions of OS X, you could run older apps in classic mode if you had OS 9.x installed. However, many games don't operate properly in classic mode.
If you want to run the games, get an older model G3 or G4 Mac running OS 9 or below.
Cheers, Tom
