Rainbow Six instantly comes to mind as it’s based on a Tom Clancy novel. Metro 2033 is a novel series too. Suppose you could count Dynasty Warriors too since it’s based on ROTK.
Anything else good?

It’s kind of racist, but if you’re diving into 1920s pulp you should expect that.
It’s turbo racist. A couple of years ago i was about to get all “nuh uh it’s not racist” and decided i should go re-read some of it and was really upset to find out how vocal howard was. : (
Kinda tempted to go re-work the core stories to make Conan woke.
I mean there are a bunch of later stories from other authors so I wouldn’t be surprised if they toned that down somewhat.
It’s also a pretty fiercely guarded IP so you might want to think about creating your own less racist sword and sorcery setting
True dat. I kind of have half of one tucked away somewhere. A prominent feature is that fishing villages on one side of the central sea have an integrated culture of humans and intelligent, language capable squid. Everyone works the nets together and they hang out in the bay talking and shooting the shit after the work day is done.
good to know, thanks, only read some comic book adaptations a while ago by Roy Thomas
Howard wrote an short essay about the setting history which is more than 95% cases of worldbuild does.
