Hotel Dusk: Room 215 - A VN by Cing, centered around a guy called Kyle Hyde. Solve the mystery of Hotel Dusk, and find out why it's relevant to Kyle's problems.
The Last Window: The secret of Cape West - Sequel to Room 215, more puzzles, picking up paperclips and interrogating people for information. Has references to the first game as well as one other game at least. ("I like suits, they're comfy and easy to wear!")

Professor Layton series - Don't be fooled by the cartoony graphics, some of these puzzles are real stumpers. Two games I can think of off the top of my head.

All games mentioned are available in English. They might not be VN enough for you, but you might enjoy them nonetheless.
