Cutting out sweet cookies

The second game consists of Christmas or Easter cookies, which must be cut out well. Whoever breaks the sugar figure will be eliminated. Sweat will run through the body of the participants, cutting out a mold of figures. Some used a lighter, others used sweat, saliva…

Killing eliminates players

In the evening there was a murder. Then one less player was counted and money was added to the pot. When they turned off the lights went out and many tried to kill each other.

Pull the rope

The players, in groups of 10, pulled on a rope where they were chained, until one group pulled the other and won. Those who lose, fall into the void and die. The protagonists were in danger of losing, because they had many women in the group and the old man. But the old man gave them a strategy to play better and win. In the end, when it seemed they were going to lose, they took several steps forward to unbalance the rival team and then pushed back, winning.

The marbles

The fifth game is about playing marbles, although there are several ways to do it. Each player has a number of marbles and the winner is the one who has his and the opponent’s marbles in possession, since they are played in pairs. The protagonist plays with the old man, and cheats him to win. The old man realizes this and tells him so, but forgives him and gives him his marbles.

The crystals

There is a road in the heights with two types of glass to cross it: a fragile one that would not withstand the weight of a human and a more rigid one that would withstand the weight of two humans. In this game finally only 3 players pass, but the girl ends up seriously injured. Then the protagonist’s friend ends up killing her, since he knows that she is an obstacle for him to win in the end.

The squid game

The protagonist is going to win, but decides to surrender so that they both survive, but eventually his friend ends up committing suicide. Finally the protagonist wins.

They catch him and before killing him, the boss, the one in the black mask reveals his identity: his brother. One of the former players of the death games, who had won and who had returned as one of those responsible. And the cop dies (or so it seems, because his corpse is not seen).
