Squid Games

The lobby is the starting point for the Participants; it is a spacious place where the very high bunk beds are located. There the Players rest and there they woke up after being gassed. It is a place with a white wall and a white ceramic floor, while the lower part of the walls has a 2-centimeter turquoise plaster.
There are also the bathrooms, with blue and white walls, mirrors, sinks, urinals, a green ceramic floor, and pink door grids where the toilets are located.
Next to the restrooms is the entrance to the games area, where a participant counter is visible. In the middle of the lobby, on the ceiling, is a giant golden glass bowl that lowers slightly after each game, releasing coins—these coins come from eliminations. When these coins fall into the bowl, it makes a sound like coins dropping in video games.

Green Light Red Light: A large and spacious, long and elongated stage, walls with the drawing of the sky and a wheat field, the floor is a mixture of sand and fine yellow earth and thick and somewhat slippery.
Dalgona: A children's playground with a slide, swings, and handrails.
Tug of War: Dark background and two separate platforms facing each other with yellow borders. In the empty center is a yellow circular support to keep the rope straight. There is also a handkerchief there marking the center of the rope. This handkerchief will cross the line of the winning team's platform, and the losers will fall from the heights with no more rope to pull. The participants are handcuffed to the rope.
Marbles: A small 20x20 stage simulating a Plaza-type neighborhood with streetlights, with a dirt floor, the participants will play there.
Glass Bridges: Start and Finish, red curtain. Black background and fall, a 10-minute timer at the finish line; they must guess the correct glass.
Squid Game: the same scenario as Red Light Green Light, however here the Doll is not used but it is a death battle between the Finalists.

4. Marbles: Participants must form teams of 2 to play a marbles game of their choice (e.g., the one who gets the basket in the hole wins. The one who shoots closest to the wall wins.). The winner leaves and the loser stays to be eliminated by a Triangle guard.
5. Crystal Bridge: Participants will enter a white room with 16 miniatures numbered from 1 to 16. This determines who advances first across the crystals (the participants don't know this). They will face a challenge of probability and luck. They must choose the correct crystal: left or right, fragile or reinforced. If they choose incorrectly, the crystal breaks and the participants fall. If they guess correctly, they must continue guessing 15 more times to reach the end and move on to the final game.
   The Squid Game: After a "Formal" Dinner. The Squid Game will take place in the same location as Green Light Red Light, but this time it will be a Battle to the Death between the Finalists; the last one standing wins. The only rule is that if the Participants agree, they can split the Prize and leave.

The Squid Games consist of children's or "innocent" games, but if you lose, you die. There are a total of 6 games:

1. Red Light, Green Light: This is a game where you must reach the finish line by walking or running. A giant doll leaning against a large tree sings the song "We'll play, move, Green Light." When the phrase or song ends, the players must not move. If they do, the doll detects them with its hair sensors, and they lose and are eliminated by the Triangle Guards. Those who reach the finish line before the 3-minute timer runs out advance to the next round. However, those who don't reach the finish line within 3 minutes due to panic are automatically eliminated by the Triangle Guards.
2. Dalgona: This game is known for being one of the most stressful, because you have to choose a door that covers different shapes: Triangle, Circle, Star, and Umbrella. These are ordered by difficulty. The door you choose will determine which shape you must mold into a cookie using a pin or a thick, pointed needle. If you break the cookie instead of molding the shape, you will be eliminated (killed) by the Circle guards. But if you mold the shape into the cookie, you advance to the next round. There is a 5-minute time limit; if you don't break the cookie but fail to mold it within the allotted time, you automatically lose.
3. Tug of War: The participants are hoisted onto a high platform. Fourteen participants, divided into two groups, will compete from the platform's height. A handkerchief is attached to the middle of the rope. If the handkerchief crosses the opposing team's line, the team that achieves this wins. The losing team, when the handkerchief crosses the opposing line, typically falls to their deaths due to the rope's length. Participants are handcuffed to the rope during this game.

The Participants are individuals who agreed to enter the games for the reward of 456,000,000 won. They are mostly indebted or poor people who have no idea that these games are deadly. They wear a green uniform with white trim, and their number is displayed on the right side of the chest. They wear white T-shirts under their uniforms and white sandals.
These individuals are numbered from #1 to #456 in order of arrival. They are usually recruited at a train station, and if they accept, they are sent to a location in Seoul where they wait for a van. Upon entering, they are drugged with gas and taken to the gaming area.

The elite are people who pay to watch the games; these are the Guests whom the Leader accommodates. They wear luxurious suits and golden animal masks.

This individual is the Leader of the Games, the Supreme Guardian, the one who oversees its creation. He holds the supreme mandate above all ranks. He wears an all-black hooded uniform with a completely black mask, and always carries a revolver. He is also in charge of supervising and ensuring the comfort of the guests.

The Guards are individuals assigned to different tasks. They wear a reddish-pink hooded uniform with a black mask bearing a symbol, which can be a circle, triangle, or square. Under no circumstances can they reveal their identities, or they will be executed on the spot. They are divided into three ranks:
Circle Guard: These Guards are in charge of preparing the Games, Baking the Dalgona cookies, Cleaning up the Blood and preparing the next games.
Triangle Guards: These guards are responsible for eliminating people. They shoot participants who fail to complete the game; basically, they do the dirty work.
Square Guard: This Guard is only one individual, because he is in charge of the mandate of the other Guards.

The Squid Games, or "Squid Game," are a series of children's games, six in total. Green Light Red Light: This game takes place on a giant, long, and narrow stage. Participants enter through green doors and must wait behind a white line. They then run or walk through the game to the finish line. At the finish line, a giant robot doll leans against a large, leafless, withered tree. It sings the song "We'll Play, Move Green Light." As the song ends, its head rotates 180 degrees to face the participants. When the doll turns its head, the participants must remain perfectly still. Any sudden movement is detected by the doll's sensors in its eyes, and it sends an order to the guards to shoot the detected individual. However, very small movements, such as trembling, the rise and fall of breathing, or slight hand movements, will not be detected. Participants who manage to cross the final white line will advance to the next round, while those who do not arrive in time will be eliminated.

There's a giant screen at the end that shows the time remaining; it starts in 3 minutes.
