The familiar question lingers: how far will people go when desperation meets opportunity?Meanwhile, ‘Squid Games’ season 2 received 4 star ratings from ETimes with our official review reading, “The cliffhanger climax hints at season 3, but it doesn’t give the same high as the one we were left with at the end of season 1. What made season 1 so brilliant was the games that kept us on our toes; here, the games begin only in the third episode, and lengthy conversations between the contestants weaken the pace the show is known for, for a bit. In the first season, the deaths of characters felt a bit personal – which made us pause for a minute from binge-viewing – to wallow in the loss. But in season 2, the ‘good ones’ or the primary and secondary characters are kept almost till the last 2 episodes.”
