Part 7/10:
Visual symbolism is prevalent throughout Round Six, with colors, shapes, and numbers intricately woven into the narrative fabric. The colors of the uniforms worn by players, for instance, are deliberate choices; green signifies hope and immaturity, reflective of the players’ naïveté as they enter the games. In contrast, the red or magenta uniforms of the guards symbolize danger and authority, reinforcing their role as enforcers of the brutal system.
Even the childlike imagery of the games, like the infamous "Red Light, Green Light" challenge, juxtaposes innocence with the grim reality of the consequences, creating a chilling dichotomy that pervades the aesthetic of the series.
