RPG?

[cramerica]

If anyone here present knows of a good adventure-game style (e.g., figure out the plot/solve mysteries & puzzles as you go along) tabletop RPG suitable for adult players, please let me know...

Thanks!

Like Paranoia? It's been years, but with a good GM, it's a fantastic game.

Lots of great reviews over at FunAgain Games. I'm not sure exactly what you're looking for, but if it's published in the US or UK, you'll find it there!

Are you looking for D&D-like plots that have secrets that, once discovered, cannot really be played again by the same players, or "dungeon-crawl" type games that have treasures and monsters to be discovered that are generally known about, but need to be "figured out" anew each time? (Doom, The Boardgame, somewhat straddles these two genres

Call of Cthulhu is often investigation focused. Though the solution to the mystery is often "Humanity is doomed."

I second my Saw. CoC is really awesome for that. Plus dude, DEMONS!

I've heard that the Star Trek RPG tends to be pretty investigation heavy.

And also, Ojo and I are probably both good for joining in on a game. We've got a few source books around here, including CoC but not ST.
