Launching at the Immerse LDN entertainment district this spring, Squid Game: The Experience lets visitors try their hand at the thrilling games from Season 1 of the global hit show – though thankfully without the life-or-death stakes.

“Squid Game” is the biggest Netflix hit to date, with millions around the world following Seong Gi-hun's battle for survival in brutal games that pit contestants against each other in life-or-death struggles in order to claim generational wealth as a prize. With its gameshow-like setup, the South Korean series seemed tailormade for an immersive real-life experience, and that's just what's coming to London following successful runs in New York, Sydney, Seoul, and Madrid.

Competitors in Squid Game: The Experience will battle against each other in five memorable games inspired by the show, including avoiding the death stare of The Doll in Red Light, Green Light, in order to win points and claim victory. Sessions last around 60 minutes, and afterwards you can relax and hang out over soju cocktails in the Korean Night Market area.

Tickets for Squid Game: The Experience start at £34.10 and go on sale on Friday 25 April. You can find out more about the experience and book your spot here.
