Is there a website or an online museum which tracked the originals of traditional and how it spread across different nations?

There are traditional games in and the which are (very) similar, yet, there was no known contact between the two nations at the time these traditional games were estimated to have been “developed”.

That only leaves us with two possibilities:

  1. The games did develop independently. Which someone gives us the idea that humans think similarly regardless of place and time.

  2. Another foreign contact brought the games.

Here are some examples:
Korea: Red Light, Green Light.
Philippines: Stop, Go.

Philippines: Sipa (predates Spanish rule)
Korea: I don't remember what it's called, but I first saw it in a episode.

Korea:
Philippines:

Marbles game
Philippines: Jolen, Holen, or just marbles.
Korea: can't remember what it's called.

Korea: Gonggi
Philippines: Jackstone

@thepoliticalcat Oooh! We have something similar in the Philippines!

We call it “Sungkâ”.

Contestants in a competition inspired by "Squid Game" suing saying producers "pushed the boundaries of safety in the name of entertainment" and insisted that "Production companies need to ensure that health and safety standards on their shows don't leave people at risk of harm" #SquidGame https://www.npr.org/2023/11/27/1215389829/squid-game-the-challenge-players-say-they-suffered-injuries-while-filming

*apparently they only want SIMULATED death and destruction, not actual death and destruction.

There is no limit to what some marketers will licence brands, to use to sell unrelated products, particularly to children.

I am halfway through the first episode of Squid Game: The Challenge and frankly I am not impressed.

Knowing that they are only getting shot with paintballs is boring. I don't really care about the contestants or their backstory.

Half the fun of Squid Game was immersing yourself in the idea that this could be real and wanting certain characters to win or lose.

In “The Challenge" I want them all to lose... right now.

No criticism of capitalism can ever top the suits at Netflix seeing Squid Game and thinking “Let’s make it real!”

#capitalism #SquidGame

jeff,

@aral i like how everyone blames capitalism for their godless amoral despotic culture of nightmares and not the lack of god.

@jeff Um, what? Actually, don’t bother.

@ai6yr So, it's just like the rest of the entertainment business has been ever since entertainment became a business. The creators are almost never the rich ones, and when they are, they're generally collecting the money other less-famous people earned.

Gerade #BlackKnight auf #netflix "angestreamt" (die ersten 3 von 6 Folgen): Es knallt und kracht an jedem Eck, aber während mich #SquidGame durchaus überzeugt hat, schafft das diese süd-koreanische Serie nicht. Dabei wäre das Setting (Erde nach Meteoriteneinschlag kaum bewohnbar, Etablierung einer Klassengesellschaft) per se nicht uninteressant. @filmeundserien

@JoergA @filmeundserien ja, ging mir auch so. Fand teilweise die Effekte mies von den Aussenaufnahmen, wie in einem 90er Videospiel.
Hab abgebrochen nach 2 oder 3 Episoden
