Squid Game mania is back after the second season was released on December 26 – and Google has dropped a fun Easter egg.
Google has released their own little game. based on the classic scene from the first season where contestants play ‘Red Light, Green Light’.
If you search ‘squid game’ or ‘red light, green light’ on the search engine, an invitation card will appear on your screen.
A mini-game featuring creepy schoolgirl Younghee allows you to play the schoolyard game on Google.
There are stop-and-go buttons which allow you to move forward or pause when she yells ‘red light!’.
Of course, Red Light Green Light makes a return in the second season, with that same creepy oversized doll scanning to check which players have moved when it’s turned around, and having them shot to death if they do.
The South Korean dystopian thriller series first hit screens in 2021, quickly shooting up the charts and becoming the streaming service’s most-watched series.
