The Devil's Plan

This show is surprisingly good and enjoyable. I thought it's gonna be just another reality show I have on as a background noise, but this show delivered so much more. The drama and rivalry among contestants kept things interesting. The dynamics between the players keeps me invested and waiting for the next episode.

Now, some of the games can be a bit tricky and quite complicated to follow. At times, I've skipped the long explanations part and just watch the game played out. Surprisingly, watching things unfold often makes more sense than wading through the exam style rules. Overall, The combination of drama, strategy, and heartfelt moments makes this show a must-watch for me.

Watching episode 1 made me jump out of my seat. The concept is so different, people are so intelligent, smart and unpredictable, it's like I'm watching a thriller movie. It's interesting to see how outcome changes with everyone's actions. An amazing show and you guys must watch it if you're into solving puzzles and collecting **pieces**.

You'll get to see different kind of people, acting differently in various scenario, how alliances are made and how betrayal happen.

Day 1 which makes two episode of it was completed package, the jealousy, competitiveness, teamwork, trust, distrust - I just can't wait for more episodes....

I was done with those reality shows where the temp in the room is higher than the avg is. It is a breath of fresh air to see both intellectual with good emotional intellect, playing the games without constantly betraying each other or being mean and all over the place. Such a wholesome group of people with genuine interaction, strategies.

I particularly loved the games designs, their ingenuity and how it all comes together. There was no smart exploit that ruins it for one player, it was either you're good in a field needed or you aren't. No tricks. They pushed all the participants to their limits making them all likeable as they displayed weaknesses to each other.

This is one of the best reality shows I've ever seen. It kept me at the edge of my seat the whole time, the cast was very likeable and by the end of the show I felt I had watched all of them for months. Every individual player had enough screen-time, so by the end I knew them so well and felt heartbroken when some of my favorites left. High steaks, high emotions, super interesting games that I would love to try playing. Season 2 would probably even be more interesting, because the contestants will know what to expect and will probably be a bit more cutthroat. I'm convinced anyone who doesn't like this just doesn't have the mental capacity to follow the rules of the games and the strategies implemented by the players... there is simply no other explanation 😂

Let me start by saying that I loved the show from start to finish. The intro theme to each episode is extremely catchy and fun. Totally sets the tone for the show and what you are supposed to expect.

The cast was excellent they all had their own strengths and personalities. Each of them felt unique and personable in their own right.

The games were challenging but not difficult to understand. If you are looking for shows with mysteries/puzzles you should at least expect them to offer novel puzzles that can keep both the audience and the players on their toes. I appreciate that the creator, director, producers felt confident enough to hold the audience to a standard. If you are looking to watch something that microwaves your brain into mush, like most other shows on netflix, this is not the show for you.

The game itself, overall, never leaned too hard on either side of cooperation or direct competition. This is perhaps the biggest reason the game felt so balanced. The challenges ranged from highly cooperative to much more individualistic.

The Devil's Plan is leagues above other game-shows like Big Brother, The Amazing Race...

I enjoyed the whole show, I was at the edge of my seat the whole time. I highly recommend it and hope that it gets 10 more seasons with hopefully more novel games, intricate puzzles, and with just as interesting and personable of a cast.
