Quibi may have debuted less than an hour back, but its shows are already huge hits with the audience. One such piece of content is the dystopian thriller 'Most Dangerous Game' starring Liam Hemsworth and Christoph Waltz. The series sees Liam Hemsworth play Dodge Tynes, a man diagnosed with cancer.

In a bid to provide for his pregnant wife when he's gone, he takes an offer from a mysterious businessman Miles Seller (Christoph Waltz)  to participate in a deadly game where he's hunted by unknown people. Survival means winning $24.5 million. Enough money for his wife to live a comfortable life. 

And here are a few reactions that followed:

"To be frank, I did not mind the first 6 minutes of The Most Dangerous Game, but I will watch almost anything with Christoph Waltz involved," wrote a fan. Another seconded it by tweeting: "Most Dangerous Game was alright as well, putting @Quibi down for now but I’ll watch more episodes of what I watched, only having to invest 7 minutes in a piece of content is perfect for my attention span."

"Quibi has been out for about an hour and I’m already hooked. Most Dangerous Game, Survive, I Promise, When The Streetlights Go On... where to start?!" wrote another. "Watched the first 3 episodes of the most dangerous game in less than 25 minutes. Pretty awesome," felt a fan.  Here's some overall feedback by a fan: "I thought “Most Dangerous Game” and “Survive” were the perfect launch shows. Each chapter definitely gets you to want to watch more. They are as good as anything you would see on cable or streaming."

Here's a tweet from a fan who left 'Westworld' midway to catch up on Quibi content. "I was in the middle of the new episode of Westworld when I got the App Store message now I'm watching Quibi shows...definitely check out #MostDangerousGame and LMK your thoughts on #Survive"

And finally ending it with a tweet from a Tarantino fan, Quentin Quarantino: "Downloaded Quibi to watch Most Dangerous Game. It's a story I've loved since reading it and one I've always wanted to tell. Interested to see their rendition".

The official synopsis of the series reads, "Desperate to take care of his pregnant wife before a terminal illness can take his life, Dodge Tynes (Liam Hemsworth) accepts an offer to participate in a deadly game where he’s the prey. This dystopian action-thriller explores the limits of how far someone would go to fight for their life and their family. Let the games begin."

'Quibi' is available for download on Google Play and App Store.
