Squid Game 2-3 (Complete)

Front Man & Managers Attire • Front Man: A completely black suit, including a jacket, pants, black mask, and tie. He stands out among the guards for his elegance and authority. • His mask is geometric and slightly more ornate, reflecting his higher rank. • Managers (square guards): They wear the same pink jumpsuit, gloves and boots, but carry weapons or pistols, and act as team leaders among the guards.

Pink guards uniform • One-piece jumpsuit with hood, made to cover the body completely, deep pink (many see it as red, but according to the director and design, it is pink) (). • The color pink was chosen to evoke a childlike/playful aesthetic but contradicts the brutality of armed power. • They complement the jumpsuit with black gloves, black boots, and a black utility belt, reinforcing the aesthetic of control and anonymity. • Black mask and mesh netting, with no facial expression. A geometric symbol appears on the mask: • Circle: lowest rank (workers, maintenance workers). • Triangle: intermediate range (armed guards). • Square: higher rank (managers, supervisors)  . • Under the mask they also wear balaclavas/cloth masks, to completely cover their face and reinforce anonymity ().

Players' uniform • Aqua-green tracksuit with white side stripes and a large (3-digit) number on the chest and back. • Inspired by Korean school uniforms from the 1970s, this uniform design eliminates traces of social class, symbolizing that everyone is reduced to a number and not a person with a unique identity. • Sporty and discreet white sneakers complete the outfit, emphasizing comfort, mobility and anonymity ().

1. Bedroom/Lobby Design • Atmosphere and aesthetics The room is large and rectangular, with sterile white walls lit by fluorescent tubes. Its appearance is reminiscent of a vehicle tunnel, reinforcing the sense of confinement. The bunk beds lined up against the walls reinforce an almost hospital-like or barracks-like feel. • Beds There are numerous metal bunk beds stacked in neat rows. Each one has green sheets, simple blankets, and pillows, creating a cold, uniform environment (). • Information screen and rotating piggy bank On one wall, a large screen displays the number of remaining participants and the accumulated prize money in real time. A transparent piggy bank with bills periodically descends from the ceiling, accompanied by yellow lights and arcade-style music to remind players of the stakes.
2. Details on the walls • Thematic murals In the background, on the walls, there are illustrations of children's games, which emerge every time the beds are removed – a visual resource that anticipates the following skills ().

• The environment seeks to convey an atmosphere of total confinement and constant pressure. • The bunks decrease as there are eliminations, revealing murals and voids that refer to the increasing mortality of the game. • It serves as a meeting and conflict point between players—both for alliances and for fights or voting.

• Location and setting The game takes place on three elevated platforms, each with a distinct geometric shape: square, triangle, and circle. Players start on the square platform and advance to the upper one in each phase. • Main rules

1. Each phase lasts 15 minutes.
2. To advance to the next level, at least one player must eliminate another—that is, push them off the platform. If no one succeeds, all players remain in that phase but cannot advance, resulting in their collective elimination.

• Elevated platform Players must cross a narrow, elevated bridge over a chasm. Instead of a solid bridge, there are two puppets: Young-hee at one end and a new robotic companion, Cheol-su, at the other. Between them, they swing a steel bar, acting as a lethal rope.

• Rules of the game

1. Each participant advances individually across the bridge.
2. You must jump at the right moment to avoid being hit by the rotating bar, which accelerates progressively ().
3. Any mistake or stumble causes a fatal fall.
4. There is a 20-minute limit for everyone to attempt to cross.

• Team division: Players draw a ball from a machine: • Red color → become seekers, receive knives. • Blue color → they become hiders, they receive keys to unlock doors in the arena

• Hiders must hide or find the exit using the keys and survive 30 minutes. • Seekers must kill at least one hider in that time, otherwise they themselves are eliminated. • Keys and doors: • There are three types of keys (circle, triangle, and square), and you must put all three together to open the final exit . • Pre-game exchange: • Before the game starts, players may change teams if another team agrees to do so, but only once (). • Deadly dynamics: • If the seekers don't kill anyone, everyone dies. • If hiders are found by seekers, they are killed.

Participants enter a rotating carousel-like platform. When it stops, the announcer announces a number—for example, "3" to "8"—and the players must gather in groups of exactly that size, enter a small room, and close the door within 30 seconds. Those who fail, or are placed in rooms of the wrong size, are immediately eliminated (executed).

• Start: Everyone climbs onto a platform that begins to spin. • When stopping: The children's song (“Round & Round”) is heard and a number is announced . • Forming groups: Players must be organized into groups of the exact size, no more and no less. • Enter and close: Only those who enter and close the room door remain in the next round. • Time limit: 30 seconds per round . • Successive rounds: The dynamic is repeated with different numbers, each time increasing the pressure.

This challenge involves teams of five players whose members have two legs tied together, creating six legs in total. They must complete five different children's mini-games along a circular track, all as a team and in less than five minutes.

1. Team formation: Each team consists of five members, with the inner legs of each pair tied together.
2. Circular track: The circuit is marked every 10 meters with stations for a mini-game.
3. Turns and mini-games: Each member must play a mini-game at their station: • Ddakji: Turn over a card with another thrown card . • Biseokchigi (flying stone): Hitting one stone with another without stepping on the line . • Gonggi: Collect and throw five pebbles in progressive levels. • Paengi Chigi (spinning top): Winding a rope and spinning the top . • Jegi (hacky sack): Keep a flying ball in the air with 5 consecutive kicks.
4. Time limit: You have only 5 minutes to complete all the games and cross the finish line; otherwise, you are eliminated (executed).

How to play: • Players must advance from the starting line to the finish line, located several meters away. • A large robotic doll (or a person in other versions) is placed in front of the players, with its back to them. • When the doll says “Green Light,” it turns around and players can run forward. • When you shout “Red light” and turn to look, everyone must remain completely still. • If the doll detects someone moving during “Red Light”, that person is eliminated (Dead, they are shot)
