 		ARG newbie looking for match
Ideally, what I would like is a medium to high interaction game with easy to medium puzzles (if indeed there even are puzzles to be had), and a fairly dark and/or psychological edge to them. I don't mind if they are already in progress, so long as my getting involved late in the game won't annoy the PM.

I got into this by way of random happenstance. I found an old 10-minute promo ARG for Freefall, that uses your phone and internet to create the illusion of reality. Since then, I was hooked but had no idea how to get more, until again I had the lucky chance of finding this place.

 		Based on that, I'd suggest the game going on for Dexter right now -- it's on the higher end of interaction, involves people getting murdered by a (non-Dexter) serial killer, and the puzzles haven't gone too far into the realm of the esoteric. There's a great review of events so far here: http://angelnorelation.com/f8/

And while the interaction is low, I'd suggest giving Anthony Zuiker's Level 26 a try -- it's an "interactive" book where every twenty pages or so, you're sent to a website to watch videos that extend the story. It's by the guy behind CSI, and is extremely dark -- he wouldn't be able to get away with that content on tv (huh...except apparently he is). This one's more of an experience-in-a-box like with Eagle Eye.

 		After reading for what felt like forever Razz I'm gonna do my best to join in on the Dexter one, I think. I haven't looked in on the other one yet, since I haven't slept in two days and I'm about to collapse. Still, it seems the Dexter one was a good call. I certainly enjoyed catching up on it and am eager for the new briefing tomorrow.
