'Squid Game: The Challenge' Just Hit Netflix, And The Fan Reactions Have Us Super Invested

After releasing the popular series Squid Game, Netflix has followed up with a real-life version called Squid Game: The Challenge and fans couldn’t be more captivated. Here are some of the most unforgettable reactions to one of Netflix’s most chaotic reality competition series.

1. Binge Watched The First Few Episodes

Just finished #SquidGameTheChallenge first 5 episodes and it really is such a chaotic show (in a great way). Idk, seeing a scripted series be converted into a reality competition show and done as well as it was, great job! Y’all cooked with this #SquidGame pic.twitter.com/Ssq9YQVHRg

2. Time To Pick A Partner

I can’t believe they didn’t realize they were being set up to play marbles when they asked them to pair up. I saw that coming a mile away lol #SquidGameTheChallenge pic.twitter.com/k6UHJj5YVG

3. Casually Fighting Over Shapes

Couldn’t they just play rock paper scissor to choose the damn shape instead of going through all the dramatics? #SquidGameTheChallenge pic.twitter.com/2r5BTr4lTS

Me watching players get eliminated on Squid Game The Challenge cause they can’t pick a damn shape #SquidGameTheChallenge pic.twitter.com/Lmrg9i9OGk

7. And The Scheming Begins

Player 130 won an advantage just to get eliminated. Player 229 is savage 😂😂#SquidGameTheChallenge pic.twitter.com/Y2HYa2HINh

10. Always Ready With A Clever Comeback

not Lorenzo fumbling the “just checking if it’s three-o-two or three-hundred-and-two” and Leann clapping back with “that’s the same thing” he thought he ate #SquidGame #SquidGameTheChallenge pic.twitter.com/EqgF2eRfQU

12. Never Team Up With An Ally

If you‘re on #SquidGameTheChallenge and you‘re ordered to form pairs of two, you DO NOT PICK A FRIEND. Apparently these people did not do their homework. 😂 pic.twitter.com/NxqxQCPDsr

13. Justice For Rick

229 was wrong for eliminating Rick. Like, leave the old people to enjoy the experience a bit longer? You have stronger competitors. Are you that scared of 179?#SquidGameTheChallenge pic.twitter.com/bU36buhWTv

15. It’s All Just A Game

I like #SquidGameTheChallenge but my main issue so far is that it takes itself way too serious. this isn't the original show where it's life or death. let's have fun with it pic.twitter.com/z6zjGQz40w

20. What A Plot Twist

The ending of episode 5 of #SquidGameTheChallenge is one of the greatest plot twists I have witnessed since the season 1 finale of The Good Place.
I audibly gasped when 301 pulled THAT out of the basket. pic.twitter.com/Otj24doFX9
