6 Games to Play While You Wait for Squid Game Season 3
If you're craving the high-stakes drama, psychological mind games, and survival chaos of Squid Game, you're not alone. While we all await the release of Season 3, why not dive into video games that echo the show's intense themes? From twisted social experiments to fast-paced death matches, these six games will scratch that Squid Game itch in all the best (and worst) ways. 1. Danganronpa V3: Killing Harmony If you loved Squid Game 's psychological mind games, Danganronpa V3 is a perfect fit. In this visual novel-meets-murder mystery, a group of high school students are trapped and forced to kill each other to escape—sound familiar? Twists, betrayals, and courtroom drama make this a darkly addictive playthrough. 2. Mortal Kombat Sometimes, you just want the raw brutality that Squid Game so often teases—and Mortal Kombat delivers in spades. Its over-the-top fatalities, epic character roster, and tournament-style structure align well with the do-or-die mechanics of the Netflix hit. Plus, the stakes? Always fatal. 3. The Last of Us Part I For those who connected with the emotional depth behind Squid Game 's violent façade, The Last of Us Part I offers a gripping, character-driven survival story. Set in a post-apocalyptic world, it's about trust, loss, and what people will do to survive—key themes in Squid Game. 4. Fortnite Hear us out—while Fortnite may not have the bleak tone of Squid Game, it mirrors the battle royale format. With its constantly shifting rules, shrinking zones, and everyone-for-themselves setup, Fortnite is the colorful, chaotic cousin of Squid Game 's more brutal games. 5. We Happy Few Like the eerie, dystopian vibe of the Squid Game facilities? We Happy Few drops you into a drug-controlled society where conformity is enforced, and rebellion is dangerous. Expect unsettling visuals, survival mechanics, and a creeping sense of unease that fans of the show will appreciate. 6. Deathloop Much like the layered structure of Squid Game, Deathloop offers a mind-bending challenge: you're trapped in a time loop with eight targets to eliminate before midnight. Stealth, strategy, and a race against time make this one a cerebral thrill, perfect for fans who love to unravel mysteries. Whether you're here for the survival tension, the emotional unraveling, or the stylish dystopia, these six games channel the Squid Game spirit in fascinating ways. Dive in, gear up, and may the odds be ever in your favor—until Season 3 hits your screen.

Marketing global events to audiences in the Middle East
Global live entertainment was no longer testing the waters in the Middle East. With major international live events coming to markets like the UAE and Saudi Arabia, regional audiences are showing up and selling out arenas and stadiums across the Middle East. This month, Proactive Entertainment has brought the internationally renowned musical Mamma Mia! to Abu Dhabi in the UAE. Taking over Etihad Arena on Yas Island from June 11 to 22, the event has hosted thousands of theatre fans. Jose Cuervo, Middle East Regional Director at Proactive Entertainment speaks to Campaign Middle East on how it shaped its marketing strategies to draw in audiences to the show. 'We run campaigns in parallel,' he explains, stating that strategies differ on the optimal target audience for each live event. 'For Mamma Mia!, our key target audiences are women in their late 20s to, high 40s. We have understood that for this demographic in particular, the best way to actually convert is digitally through Meta, Google and through out-of-home (OOH),' he says. 'We have a very strong outdoor strategy which goes not only through Abu Dhabi but also in Dubai,' he continues, 'from branding on taxis, billboards on streets, and screens in different places around the country.' 'That has allowed us to have a very omnipresent campaign throughout the show's run,' he adds. But demographics alone don't sell tickets. Consumer insight is the compass. 'We're constantly surveying audiences, not just in the UAE, but across the Middle East,' Cuervo says. Even though he admits that shows like Hamilton may take years to migrate from New York to Yas Island, 'when they do, the demand is rarely in question,' he says. He further explains that Proactiv also keeps a close watch on repeat viewership and bases its strategy on how soon a show can return to a market and still sell out. In terms of converting awareness into ROI in ticket sales, Cuervo says 'YouTube ads has been very big for us,' as they 'allow for the show to be present at all times, even when you're far from the season itself.' He also says that 'Instagram and search are always at the top,' of the event company's conversion rate. Finally, securing the right partners adds to the strength of marketing global events to audiences in the Middle East. 'Platinumlist has been in the region for years and they've grown a very strong database which allows us to speak directly not only to their entire database but segments that are more relevant to us when it comes to musicals,' Cuervo says. 'Our government partners, Miral and DCT Abu Dhabi have also been instrumental in driving this theatre strategy and turning Abu Dhabi into the theatre capital of the Middle East,' he adds. 'That's why we have been so successful – because it's the collective effort of several stakeholders,' he concludes.
