I just got finished with beating Riven for the first time. I adored the way the game seeped into my real life with pages of notes about the world I was discovering. Are there any other games that can match this feeling? That really work best when you have a journal in hand?

It definitely does, and I'll second the recommendation, but at least one set of puzzles only really requires the the notepad because they didn't give you sufficient software tools in game, not because it couldn't be done well in game.
