https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Cicada_3301

Even if its not true or just some puzzle that goes nowhere, its a great idea for a role-playing game

Sounds like talent scouting.

The very name cicada seems to be a cryptograph, and the fact that the bugs themselves only show every certain number of years seems ominous.

heard about this. one of the puzzles was a picture file or something. embedded in it was a message to the next clue, or something. you can embed stuff within the photo, change a pixel, whatever.
