An arg, like I said, is and alternate reality game. It's played over the internet, on fake websites. It's part detective work and part weird fiction. You find buried clues in the websites to piece together stories and solve puzzles to further continue the story. Heck, they even hire actors who will call you, email you, fax you etc. It immerses you as a real person in the game. Ever seen "The Game" with Michael Douglas? Watch it, and then you might have a better understanding.
