And if multiplayer doesn't bother you, the MMO The Secret World was one of the few other video games that expected players to do outside research to solve quests. That or have degrees in history, art, and the occult.

It was relaunched as a F2P game several years ago. I don't know if they kept the obscurity aspect or toned it down to be more friendly to casual players, but hopefully they didn't remove the main thing that made it stand out.
