This was the finale to the Squid Game series. Will the games continue? It appears the ending left the possibility of a spin-off. Many did not like the 2nd or 3rd installment of Squid Game and felt there should have been nothing after the 1st series. It's true the 1st series landed with a bang. It's almost impossible to follow that with something as good. The writer took a different approach by focusing more on the characters working the game, the pursuit by the brother of the Front Man, and the psychological toll the games had on the character of 456. I felt the writer did the only logical thing by not trying to duplicate the 1st series, but go deeper into the story of the actual characters.

I mean what can you say about a series that presents a modern-day fight to the death for the entertainment pleasure of the elite wealthy? It's horrible, but not out of the question considering we live in a world where certain people can buy countries if they wanted. It hits a little too close to home, and it's a tragedy of modern life. I thought it was done well. The acting, the sets, everything was done really well. But the story really does leave me with an icky feeling. But then this isn't a feel-good type of drama.
