Squid Game
Ranking the Squid Game Games from Most to Least Survivable
Though the actual Squid Game looked incredibly punishing in the show, there aren’t really any external factors that can come to bite you in the ass. You’re definitely going to be up against it with 45.6 billion Won on the line and, in this case at least, just one person standing in your way in this game.
Ultimately, though the parameters for winning here are largely in your control, and more importantly you don’t have to beat three shades of the brown stuff out of your opponent like Gi-hun and Sang-woo inevitably ended up doing.
The rule of the game is for the ‘attacker’ to reach the head of the squid, and the ‘defender’ simply had to push them out of the body in order to win. If either player is unable to complete their task (in other words, because they’re dead), their opponent automatically wins.
In other words, killing isn’t explicitly necessary, so if you fancy yourself an agile attacker or strong defender, you don’t have to resort to simply ending someone’s life yourself.
You can bet your bottom dollar a pink-suited PlayStation face will be waiting to take care of the loser, though.
The reason we’ve put Squid Game so low, though, is because we don’t really like the idea of our fate being put in the hands of chance, like in some of the other games. We’ve terrible luck, so we’d rather determine our fate, even if we are put against some absolute beast of Squid Game.
