Squid Game: Survive the Trials

My wife and I had a lot of fun with this experience. It does a great job of capturing the atmosphere and excitement of the show while turning it into an hour of lighthearted entertainment. If you are expecting the intensity of the series, don't worry. The games are completely harmless and family friendly, but they are still inspired by the challenges from the show and are a lot of fun to compete in. We actually started in the losing bracket but worked our way back through the competition, which made the experience even more satisfying. The final challenge comes down to a little bit of luck, and my wife ended up taking the overall win for our session. I would consider this a great one time attraction if you are in the area and looking for something different to do for an hour. It is especially worthwhile if you are already planning to visit Netflix House. Beyond the competition itself, Netflix House has some really cool photo opportunities, and merchandise featuring many of Netflix's most popular shows. It is a fun way to spend an afternoon, especially for Netflix fans.

Rating: 4/5 - This was everything I hoped it would be, I had a great time as a huge Squid Game fan. The 5 games were fun and exciting, some had my heart pounding. Obviously they couldn't do exactly the same games on the show but they modified them so that they would be more fair for people of different physical abilities. The games are enjoyable even if you never saw the show but it's better if you did watch at least season 1. The last game was the weakest though and not very climactic. The sets looked good with many large, iconic props from the show, lighting/sound/tech, and costumed employees, though they didn't talk except for pre-recorded voice-over for the Front Man. One GM leads you through the experience, ours was pretty good. I would definitely do this again if I'm back in Dallas and had other people to go with. You can do this solo or with friends (all the games are individual) but you go through as a group of 24. No one drops out, the positions are score based.
