I just finished watching Squid Game and well worth it. Yes it is violent and apparently the English subtitles used are not an exact translation but overall it draws you in until the end.

Agree that Squid Game is worth watching but not the dubbed version. Original language with subtitles provides a better experience, almost always, IMO. The option is available on Netflix.
