Here's How to Play Squid Game on Google Search Ahead of Season 2 Premiere

Squid Game season 2 is coming to Netflix on December 26. In the days leading up to the release, the video streaming platform is teaming up with artists all over the world to promote the show. Netflix teamed up with rapper Hanumankind for a song inspired by the show. In India, 'Pink Guards' were seen escorting singer Diljit Dosanjh at an airport. Several public places, including many metro stations in Delhi, have seen banners with images of the masked 'Frontman' and the Young-hee doll. Now, you can immerse yourself in the frenzy by playing the Red Light, Green Light game on Google Search.

Google Search Squid Game: How to Play

To play the game, you have to search for "Squid Game" on Google. This will work on both mobile and desktop browsers. You will then see a brown rectangle gamepad icon appear at the bottom of the screen overlayed on the search results. To begin the game, you can tap or click on the icon. You will then see a layout resembling the Red Light, Green Light game.

The blue circle on the left will allow you to move the six sweatsuit-clad individuals forward. The objective is to have them walk till the finish line while the doll, Young-Hee, looks away. You can stop the characters before the doll turns around by clicking the red X button on the right. If you fail, one of the players is eliminated from the game and disappears from the screen. If any character makes it to the finish line, you win and get a shower of virtual confetti on the screen.
