    This is reality show based on Squid Game, not second season

    They advertised that this will be reality show where people compete to win big price and the challenges will be inspired Squid game show people giving 1 star and saying thats not second season are plane stupid, It never pretend to be they dont in one place sugeste that. Why so many people are dumb. Trailer for this show presents all concepts, and tease some games so how somone think it would be tv series i dont know. Players are real people, when they shoot this show there was many complains from the contestants and speak about lack of food and cold weather and harsh conditions over all. Please whatch this like korean show Phisical:100 its something like that but with Squid game refrence. Players are awful because most persons on this planet are thats it.

    Don't listen to haters

    I have read like 20 reviews with a score of 1/10 and all of them were "I watched half of the first episode" or "barely went through the first one, HoRrIblE". That is not a review, that is a whine that should never be seen. I watched all five and I will watch till the end.

    I give the haters point for one thing - most of the characters are unlikeable and the ones you like will be "killed" in a matter of few episodes anyway. But that is the beauty of Squid game - you don't know who will survive or why.

    There will be many twists and turns you won't be expecting. I gave it 7 out of 10 just because I think it is slightly rigged to some point just to eliminate people producers want to eliminate. You know - for the drama.

    I worked on TV for many years and did this rigging myself many times. Despite that the show is really entertaining and I can recommend it just as a fun thing to watch.

    Addictive & Hilarious! (Don't listen to the haters)

    First of all, this game show was approved by the creator of Squid Game and he was excited for it too, especially to fill in the time while we wait for season 2 of the actual show. HOWEVER, I do agree with a lot of the negative reviews about the casting. I don't know why all these networks are constantly casting actors/social media influencers in their game shows now. Even the actors in the actual Squid Game show seem more authentic and real than many of these contestants. I don't like how Netflix in all of their reality/game shows always focuses on a select few actors instead of everyone equally. Also, when they said this is a global competition, I was hoping for more people from around the world but the majority seem to be obnoxious and loud Americans while giving zero attention to the other country cast.

    Aside from the casting, the game and show itself is AWESOME. It's intense, the set designs are impressive and match the actual show, and they introduced new games and twists to ensure the contestants can't copy the tactics used in the original show, which brings a new dynamic and makes it even more addicting.

    I would easily rate this show 10/10 if it weren't for the annoying casting, because everything else is perfect and super fun.

    One of the worst show on its merit

    This is bad because anyone thought it as "sequel" of Squid Game - no one thought of that after 5 mins of watching it - but it's a 1 out of 10 on its merit as reality show.

    I usually enjoy reality shows, which are over the top by design but this dumb show dialed that up to 100 (not 11). People's reaction is so exaggerated to the point that it's actually hurts to watch. Contestants are screaming at the camera in the fakest way possible to create a stake or drama but it's so badly written to the point no one believe it... like it introduce a contestant 2 mins before eliminating him and other contestant acting like they lost their family member or something... and viewers are supposed to care?

    I had more cringe watching this show for 2 eps (had to give because it's so bad) than my entire life time up to this point. It's hard to describe how bad it is and not enjoyable kind of bad. If the show doesn't have any relation to Squid Game, I'd still gave it a 1 out of 10 but let's be real... no one would have watched it if it didn't have Squid Game in the title.

    Hilarious that people think this is series 2!

    It's a reality tv show, you get that, right?! And as such it's pretty decent. There's the annoying characters, the ones you laugh at despite yourself, well put together to show developing relationships, and done with a budget large enough to sell the concept. It's a show that was ripe for this sort of spin off, and to be honest, it's done pretty well. If you like reality tv challenge shows, and liked Squid Game, you'll like this. I loved Squid game, can take or leave reality shows, but found enough here to enjoy the series. Strange that people give 1 star because they thought it was going to be something else; is that how ratings work??!!!
