Balders Gate IS just a computer adaptation of the original PnP roleplay game, Dungeons and Dragons. As it is probably also the most common and popular, as well as you now being pretty familiar with the rules, this would be your best bet.

As for how it's played... well instead of PC graphics, you have someone called a Dungeon Master. This person is basically God as far as your game is concerned. He writes, describes and controlls all the events that take place. You tell him how your characters are going to react. and the details are worked out by rolling dice. Ie you hit a monster with a 2-handed sword, you roll a 12 sided dice ( D12 ) to see how many hit points you wounded it, same as a computer but with real dice. The actual game is played mostly verbally. the DM (dungeon master) says what is there, you say what you want to do. It's a story telling game.
