Stay with me here, but what you must know before starting Squid Game: Season 2 is that it’s really Part One to Season Three’s Part Two (supposedly, releasing sometime in 2025). If I had known that going in, I wouldn’t have frantically searched the episodes list while repeating expletives! This season delivers an interesting arc twist with a few new games, but still revisits so much that is already familiar. The start is slow, the voting sequences are repetitive, and it’s a little predictable; but the set designs and characters are fantastic, and the show manages to hold your interest until its frustrating end.
