Search Google for ‘Squid Game’ and You Can Play a Surprise Game From the Netflix Series


Google is getting in on the 'Squid Games' deadly fun and games ahead of Netflix's Season 2 premiere.

The Google Search game features the red light-green light challenge from the show, presided over by the murdering animatronic girl doll Young-Hee. You must stop them before she turns around (by pressing the red “x”); if you don’t, you lose one of your players, who is tastefully dissolved into thin air instead of getting shot and killed as in the show. There’s also the VR adventure “Squid Game: Virtuals” and numerous consumer product and brand tie-ins, including a large Mattel doll based on Young-Hee, as well as partnerships Dominos, Xbox, Duolingo, Puma, Dos Equis XX, Carl’s Jr. and Olive Young.
