Frequently asked

What should I watch if I like Arthur Conan Doyle?

Start with the 1984 TV series Sherlock Holmes for a faithful period adaptation, or try Houdini & Doyle for a fresh angle that places Doyle himself at the centre of unsolved cases. Both capture the mix of rationalism and mystery that defines the Holmes stories.

Are there games for Arthur Conan Doyle fans?

Several excellent ones exist. Sherlock Holmes: Chapter One is a strong entry point — an origin story with real investigative mechanics — while The Testament of Sherlock Holmes and Sherlock Holmes versus Jack the Ripper offer darker, more elaborate cases for series veterans.

Which books should Arthur Conan Doyle fans read next?

The Complete Sherlock Holmes collects all four novels and fifty-six stories in one place — the essential starting point. The Shadows of Sherlock Holmes and The Rivals of Sherlock Holmes then broaden the horizon with golden-age contemporaries writing in the same tradition.
