A genre of movie that I like I term "Cube"-like movies. " Platform" and "Circle" are included, along with all the "Cube" movies.

Any suggestions?

There's Exam but it's not as good as the movies you mentioned. https://m.imdb.com/title/tt1258197/

Also, slightly unrelated but for some reason ticks the same boxes in my mind, The Game https://m.imdb.com/title/tt0119174/
