Squid Game Season 2‘s mid-credits scene has surprised fans with a brand-new twist of the Jack and Jill game. The season finale showcases the players helping Gi-hun in his revenge mission. Many meet a tragic fate after becoming embroiled in a dark bloodbath. The revelation of Player 001’s true identity brings thrilling and heartbreaking moments. On top of that, the mid-credits scene of the new game worries fans as to how brutal the games would get with the introduction of a new doll.
Here’s everything to know about Jack & Jill and how it might connect to the original game.
What is Squid Game’s Jack and Jill and how do you play the game?
Squid Game hasn’t officially revealed the Jack and Jill game rules, however, various theories link it to the actual game.
Fans must be aware of the popular doll from ‘Red Light, Green Light’ who detects movements and brutally shoots players. While one doll was enough to frighten the contestants, the makers have introduced another one. The series’ conclusion gives a sneak peek of a boy doll, who will likely cause more trouble for contestants in the third outing.
The mid-credits scene teases Young-Hee’s boyfriend and Jack and Jill’s game, which appears to be more deadly. The Jack and Jill board game has simple rules in reality. Players stand at the bottom of the hill and to climb to the top, they have to roll a color dice. The color appearing on the dice would decide the place where the player will stand. Then, players must use the spinner to know the upcoming course of action. This could mean losing a turn, facing troubles, moving up, or potentially sliding down the hill.
If the series’ game follows a similar format to the real board game, then each turn’s consequences would be horrifying for all players. As Squid Game revolves around survival and death themes, a player’s demotion or an incomplete challenge might lead to the dolls killing them. The one who manages to climb up the hill, overcoming all obstacles, could be designated the winner. This could mean easy mobility detection for the dolls as each player would be monitored from back and front. Under the supervision of two dolls, the bodies would likely be piling up quickly in the next chapter.
However, this is a theory based on the real game, and the actual rules are expected to be revealed later.
