The streamer announced today it is giving the classic children�s game a reality TV twist. �A new reality competition series based on the OG playground game of the same name is premiering on Netflix in 2027,� Netflix said. �But this isn�t the Simon you remember from recess. In a mischievous and high-stakes twist, contestants will face a gauntlet of cunning challenges, strategic mind games, and unexpected pivots as they compete for a life-changing prize. One rule remains the same: if Simon says it, you�d better listen. To win over Simon and his prize money, players must decide when to follow orders or risk elimination. Obedience may buy another day, but every choice comes with consequences.� Simon Says is from Bunim/Murray productions and The Challenge veteran showrunner Emer Harkin.
