    Recently, there's a new and trendy survival drama of Squid Game. Based on the director, it took 13 years to make this drama, to show the realistic emotions of all walks of life in this survival game. Well, I haven't watched all of these shows, but my TikTok's FYP keeps showing short clips of these shows, making me interested in them. I heard that the 1st game of Squid Game is quite similar to As the Gods Will; the red light, green light game. So, any feedback? Should I spend some time watching this?

    I haven't seen As the Gods Will but Squid Game is a good series. More than the games, you'll invest more on the characters.

    That's because Squid is series while As the gods was a movie.
    The manga for As the gods is interesting, and very long even for one game, but when you made all those games into one movie, the flavor of good survival games is lost.
    Just see Alice in borderland, if that is not series but movie, it'll flop and forgotten very fast.

    If you make poll between Alice and Squid, I wonder which one will win.

    I did want to add AIB. AIB is also based on people from all walks of life in the survival game trying to find ways to escape. There is a post on SG vs AIB on Twitter already, so I thought rather not. I choose AIB as I watch some in TikTok, so exciting!

    The thing is that these drama/movie takes time. SG takes 13 yrs, which uses a lot of time, resources, etc. I'm not sure about AIB and ATG. I like to read these types of plots. So, for the novels that I really love, I would buy those. Sometimes, these novels have manga/physical book, but it's rare to see the novels with this type of plot in a series/drama.

    not watch squid yet, maybe never~ for as god will this cat read the manga and watch the movie~ the movie is ok, the manga is interesting~

    the deathgame drama type story somehow not really interesting for this cat~ this cat hear squid manipulate human emotion and stuff hmm maybe like Kaiji level, story about gambler~
