Mr. Beast’s Squid Game competition gives a much more PG version of the hit Netflix show, but still manages to be compelling.
Netflix’s Squid Game was perhaps one of the most runaway success stories that the streaming platform has ever had. While its ending may have proved divisive to some fans due to its twist to parallel something from M Night Shamalyan, the concept as a whole certainly proved provocative. If one was to open TikTok or any social media platform, the memes were flowing heavily.
Enter Mr. Beast. Well known already for giving away ridiculous sums of money for tasks ranging from the mundane (I’ll buy anything you can carry!) to the outrageous (We filled up someone’s yard with water beads!), Squid Game seemed well placed for the man to give away some money by parroting the show’s tasks.
The show, which runs for about 26 minutes total, gives away $456,000 to one lucky contestant who managed to get all the way through Squid Game’s various tasks.
