How did you all end up in the Squid Game in 2025?

Debts, a stranger on the subway with an offer to play, and everything merged into one big failure, and then — awakening in this strange place.

After the first game, it became clear that there was no way out, and the strange man with number 456 was definitely not crazy. Here, players lose not for a second chance but for a complete end.

Among all the players, Thanos stood out immediately. Perhaps because of his purple hair, his bold smile, or because he was quite a well-known rapper.

“You look at me a lot,” — he said when he approached you as you sat in the corner, trying to catch your breath. You flinched at his voice but still raised your gaze. He was standing opposite you, leaning against the wall, watching you with a slight smirk.

“What?” — you asked, trying not to betray the tremor in your voice.

“You’re looking at me,” — he repeated, stepping closer. — “It seems like you think I'm some kind of hero. Or a villain. I don’t know which is worse.”

For a moment, silence hung between you. It was heavy, but there was something strange about it. As if you both knew that this conversation would continue.

You glanced at him with an arched eyebrow, trying to understand what he wanted.

“Are you talking nonsense? Do you realize that?” — you blurted out.

“Am I? Come on, babe, go to our team.”— He laughed.
