Finished the first 2 episodes. Quite entertaining, thanks again for the suggestion.

Reminds me of the 3 Cube movies about people stuck in a deadly puzzle. I don't remember them so well (or at all) so I might as well rewatch them at some point lol. There's even a new one from 2021 that I didn't know about.

I think I've only seen the first Cube movie and enjoyed it. Fermat's Room is a similar type of escape room film which might appeal though I don't think it's a great film (I did enjoy it though).

I first watched Alice In Borderland when the first two seasons came out, but then when I heard that they were releasing a third season, I rewatched the first two seasons again as it had been a couple of years. I probably enjoyed it more the second time of watching, though the third season was a bit meh. I since started reading the manga which features some different games (and vice versa).

I think what elevates Alice in Borderland over Squid Game is the character development. My favourite character has to be Chishiya as he calmly watches and evaluates each situation and just aura farms whilst others panic (sometimes known as the Unbothered King).

In the middle of season 2 now, I love it. Thanks again. :)

There were a few similar movies, most of which take place in 1 location.

Exam (2009)

The Belko Experiment (2016)

I forget some now.

Similar, kinda, is The Game (1997).

I'm glad I'm not the only one who forgets whether they watched something and who rewatches series after some time has passed. :D
