Character Catalog

SherlockAI's character mode currently ships with 600 playable characters organised into 6 categories. Click any character name to view their complete deduction profile, identifying clues, and strategy guide.

The catalog is curated by hand. Every character is tagged against a shared trait matrix, enabling the probability engine to narrow hundreds of possibilities down to a single guess from your answers.

Real People (180)

Famous real-world figures from sport, music, film, science, politics, and history. Clues in this section lean on nationality, field of work, era, and public achievements, so rounds about real people tend to reward broad general knowledge.

Superheroes & Comics (90)

Heroes, villains, and supporting characters from major comic book universes. Expect clues about powers, secret identities, publishers, and whether the character is best known as a hero, a villain, or something in between.

Anime & Manga (85)

Characters from Japanese animation and comics, from long-running adventure series to modern fan favourites. Clues often touch on the series a character comes from, their role in the story, and signature abilities.

Video Game Characters (85)

Protagonists, mascots, and villains from console, PC, and mobile games. Clues reference the franchise, the platform the character is associated with, and what the character can actually do in their games.

Movies & TV (85)

Live-action and animated characters from film and television. Clues cover the movie or show they appear in, the genre, their role in the story, and iconic traits audiences remember them for.

Literature & Mythology (75)

Figures from classic novels, children's books, legends, and world mythology. Clues draw on the source text or myth, the character's role, and powers or artefacts tied to their stories.
