Zener Cards Test
This experiment is a test of your psychic abilities. It's called the Zener Cards test. It was developed by Dr. Karl Zener in the early 1930's. In this experiment you will be shown five cards, each containing a different symbol, a cross, circle, square, star and wavy lines. The goal is to predict which symbol has been chosen at random.

ExorSystems, Inc (2007, Octavirate Games) Not an officially-licensed Ghostbusters role-playing game, but one that very much evokes the Ghostbusters feel. It also has elements that delve into Men in Black, Buffy The Vampire Slayer, Angel, and Hellboy territory. You don't have to join up with the Ghostbusters-like, science-driven ExorSystems, Inc. A few other groups exist in the game, which you are free to join: the mystically-minded Mithra Group, the media-driven psychics of PRECOG, and the shadowy agency known only as Department-7. Of course, you don't have to join up with any groups at all - but what's the fun in that?!? The game works with the d20 modern "metasystem", which means it runs on a core system similar to Dungeons and Dragons.
