Fans will face the on-screen challenges in-person, including the iconic Red Light Green Light under the watchful eye of Young-hee. Front Man himself will dare the brave players, testing their skills and strategy in heart-pounding games inspired by the series. But beware of new challenges.

Squid Game: The Experience is prepping fans for the Dec. 26, 2024 launch of season two of Squid Game.

Once the game is complete, players can revel in their success or forget their failures at the Night Market featuring authentic Korean snacks and special vending machines offering ramen and boba, and a fully stocked bar with Squid Game inspired cocktails.

Players may compete in groups of up to 24 (bring your family, friends, co-workers), where they have the opportunity to test their skills. There is a surprise around every corner with some games inspired by the series, and some brand new.

Players accumulate points during the escalating challenges, each featuring cutting-edge technology, and then a winner is declared.
