Main Page > List of Investigations
Note: often an ARG is named by the community. Alternative names that exist appear on the specific investigation's main page.
ARGs
These fully-fledged ARGs are confirmed to be the "real deal"; they can include puzzles, characters, and plotlines which the community can interact with.

Investigations
These are trails which have been or are being investigated by the community, but have yet to conclude in anything or have concluded merely in the discovery of an Easter egg rather than a full-blown ARG.

Notes
Type
- Official - Affiliated with source material, game studio or related organisation.
- Independent - Not affiliated with any source material or a specific organisation. Often an entirely original story.
- Community - As 'Independent', but created by one or more GD community members/for the community. Often, trailheads and clues appear primarily on community resources.
- Investigation - No ARG or puzzle has been confirmed. In the majority of cases, clues have been discovered. This may be used temporarily before such a time that confirmation has been made, or may be a permanent status. Sometimes investigations will reveal a simple marketing gimmick or similar.
Status
- Active - Known to be ongoing. Clues are still appearing, or attempts to resolve existing ones are still underway.
- Closed - The investigation has completed to its logical conclusion (it has been solved), the puppetmaster is confirmed to have permanently ceased progress or a fixed time limit has been exceeded (as with an ARG running alongside a sale, etc.).
- Gone cold - An investigation which did not amount to anything substantial.
Other Resources
- ARG Toolbox contains tools that help with the typical puzzles contained in ARGs.
