Welcome to Apple Discussions ex
A search in this forum for "Intel" would return most, if not all, of the numerous posts on this subject. In a nutshell, it is highly unlikely that AppleWorks will ever be updated let alone even receive another upgrade.
But AppleWorks 6 will run & run well through Rosetta on an Intel Mac. Those who have used AppleWorks 6 on Intel Macs find it runs as well, in some cases better, as on a G5 Mac. The editors of the AppleWorks User Group Journal did extensive testing on side-by-side G5 & Intel iMacs. You can download a PDF copy of their results at
