Season 1 was a massive hit, earning an 86 percent Critics Score on Rotten Tomatoes. Season 2 was released in December of 2024, featuring the main character, Gi-hun, making his return to the game. The second season of the hit show finished with quite the cliffhanger.

Season 3 of Squid Game has received an impressive 81 percent rating in Rotten Tomatoes' Critics Score. However, it's the audience score that is going viral.
The third season of Squid Game has received an Audience Score - otherwise known as the Popcorn Meter - of 51 percent. Fans are disappointed, mostly with the ending, it seems.
"Honestly this final season felt rushed and so many decisions were made to dumb down characters. By episode 3 all likable characters were killed off in stupid ways that feel sad for about 2 minutes before you realize their death was rushed with no impact and no build up. Last 3 episodes or second half of the season just felt prolonged with little enjoyment. Ending was so bad as well, it provides no bigger meaning," one user said.
Another wrote: "The ending was very weak and they thought they would end everything suddenly when there were many endings with a deeper meaning and message, but no, they decided on the worst in my opinion."
"Might be the worst story writing I have ever seen, but what do you expect from a finale season. It goes around in a circle, the last season is always the worst but there are shows out there that prove that stereotype wrong but unfortunately not for squid game. If you love the show just spoil yourself on google, don’t bother watching this," one added.
While the audience seems to be split on Season 3 of Netflix's hit show, the critics certainly seem to be fans of it, with an impressive 81 percent rating on Rotten Tomatoes.
The final six episodes of Season 3 are currently streaming on Netflix.
