Squid Game has been a phenomenon since it premiered in 2021. While there's no denying the South Korean thriller's high quality and masterful execution of its ideas, said ideas aren't all original. Several other countries produced series with similar premises long years before Squid Game's first season was released, with one of the most notable being the Brazillian drama 3%.
Squid Game wasn't the first dark critique of capitalism filled with deadly games to premiere on Netflix, with 3%'s first season having hit the platform 9 years earlier. The dystopian thriller depicts a future where the Earth has been mostly ravaged, and only 3% of humanity is able to earn the right to leave behind the squalor and struggle of "Inland" and enter the seemingly utopic "Offshore." The method by which every 20-year-old is tested will be familiar to any fan of Squid Game, as The Process is composed of a streak of death games.
