Although the German version of The Three Investigators starts with The Secret of Terror Castle, it continues through The Mystery of the Cranky Collector, then picks up with the "Crimebusters" series and continues on with German-language originals from there (starting at number '56'). The German-language originals started in 1993 with books by Brigitte-Johanna Henkel-Waidhofer. She wrote 16 books for Kosmos. After her era ended, several other authors continued to write in the series at the rate of six books per year (in contrast to the U.S. series, which published one new story every year or so after Robert Arthur's death).

In Germany, the franchise has also been the source of audioplays, films and graphic novels.

Die drei ??? Kids (The Three Investigators Kids) Series (since 1999)

In this series, the Three Investigators are 10 years old, thus making it a kind of prequel to the original series. Their headquarters is a water tank close to Rocky Beach nicknamed "Coffee Pot", which was once used to fill up locomotives. Joining the recurring cast are Mr. Porter, Rocky Beach's general dealer, Harbor Master Ernesto Porto, and Giovanni, who runs an ice cream parlor. Another difference to the original series is that Bud Norris, Skinner's father, operates a shady bar in the city center.
