I would say, in all honest, F#CK the educational content, focus on the game content and try to sneak the educational content in around the edges.

Besides which, aside from trying to get people to frigging memorize the bard's words, why don't you just get people to explore the themes themselves and show how they underlie ALL dramatic elements. That's not educational content, either, that's just good quest writing!

Regarding memorizing his plays, I think Shakespeare himself would say, "It's flattering, but please... get a life."

Focus on the game content, the entertainment content, using the dramatic tools and themes that the bard so graciously bequeathed to us.
