The third season of Netflix's Squid Game concludes the series but leaves much to be desired in terms of worldbuilding. While the games are executed with brutal creativity, unresolved dynamics from previous seasons undermine the narrative's potential depth. Major questions about character relationships and the hierarchy of masked guards remain unexplored. The season ultimately feels more like a continuation of season two rather than a new chapter, though some of the most captivating moments occur in the final scenes, hinting at better storytelling possibilities that were neglected earlier.
"The third season of the industry-defining Squid Game confidently delivers each new round of the deathly games with spectacularly brutal aplomb, but its attempts at worldbuilding are disappointingly tired and uneven."
"However, the third season's worldbuilding efforts remain frustratingly unimaginative for the most part, although the season's final 10 minutes deliver some of its most glorious moments that take place outside the games."
