It can work, everyone loved Squid Game, so you'd presumably find many talents to work on it. Corporation wanting to make money on it doesn't really change the quality. So it all boils down to management - if the management's gonna suck, so will the games.
A squid game game misses the point of why people loved the show.
Greedy management making games about concepts that made the number get big is how we get craters from a crash and burn. Not new stellar games.
It can work but rarely does, even with a popular IP. Great show often does not translate to great game. It can happen though. Would be cool it if did.
