In the season, Seong Gi-hun and the players fight for survival in ever-deadlier games. In-ho welcomes the VIPs while his brother Jun-ho continues the search for the island, unaware of a traitor in their midst.

Annoyingly many subplots make this show seem very unfocused, by the third episode I started to skip ahead here and there, as some scenes were fairly meh. The games have some amount of logic but fall apart in believability very fast, the characters swinging their decisions at every step. We have a secret society which resembles Eyes Wide Shut, some undercover exfiltration operation, some “let’s find an island, but actually we kinda don’t want to”, and screaming. A lot of screaming. Also the characters that are speaking in English having their voices very badly dubbed is actually annoying. Two popcorns for the Squid Screaming Game and thank God there will not be a fourth season.
