** Possibly, but only if she'd anticipated that the cab door would slam shut when it did. OTOH, the other two had ''already seen'' that very door slam to cut them off, yet failed to anticipate that the phone booth's might do the same, so Zoey's lapse wasn't the worst of the lot.

** In the [[ReCut Alternate Cut]] it's explicitly stated that they started allowing some winners to survive due to demand for a Tournament of Champions. However, it's unknown whether it is still true in the continuity of the theatrical cut, though, especially given the character who says it.

** Ben and Zoey beat their game master. The others might have as well. Given that Minos did a pretty quick clean up / cover up job on the location and the police didn't take them seriously because of it, the others probably ran into similar dead-ends if they contacted the authorities. Personally, I'd put a dollar on the Minos games being the stuff of urban legends in their world.

While the reach of Minos is pretty huge, wouldn't at least some of the literal millions of followers of these influencers notice something was up if they deactivated their accounts suddenly or didn't post in a while?

** Perhaps Minos left some previous winners alive in the event that they wanted to organize a Tournament of Champions event like the one shown in the film.
