The TV series "Game of Elimination" is a Russian suspenseful crime detective about a hostage situation. A mysterious person, calling themselves the Player, sends a terrifying message to all the residents of an elite high-rise building in the center of the capital. They declare that if they don't receive a ransom of one million dollars within three days, they will start killing one inhabitant of the building per day. At first, businessmen, politicians, and movie stars assume it's just a silly prank, but the Player quickly proves that they are not joking.
