It’s also an island but it’s completely controlled and artificial. But the filming site in Squid Game is completely different. And in the Hunger Games, they also compete in the woods where it seems like not a soul lives.
From a playground to a carnival-like hopscotch area, it was as far from the jungle of the other two films as can be.įor Battle Royale or Hunger Games, the story takes place in a somewhat wild place, right? People in Battle Royale are left in an island and they kill each other in the woods. Each game is played in a new environment that was made by the organization. Though the contestants are also on an island, they are never allowed to leave the building where they were taken. Next, it cannot be denied that Squid Game has a different setting where the challenges themselves take place. But in the drama, in the six games mentioned by the organization, the official game of killing each other does not exist.
Of course, there are some scenes where people kill each other at night to increase their own winning rates, and there are some lines saying that that’s the hidden game. On the other hand, the characters in the American and Japanese films needed to survive by murdering others in order to win. There was one scene in Episode 4 where the contestants separated into groups to kill each other, but it was not an official game.
