It's the TV show that everyone [with a Netflix subscription] has been talking about. The game show where the losers very much lose and the winner walks away with squidillions of money.
Korean TV Thriller Series Squid Game is unlike anything you've ever seen on TV and after becoming the most streamed TV show ever on Netflix, betting sites have begun taking bets on which games might be played in season 2
They range from kids favourites like Hide and Seek and Tag, to the Autumn favourite knuckle duster, Conkers, or better still, 80's playground classic British Bulldog

The losers of each game on Squid Game are 'Eliminated' often as a direct result of being the loser or as a consequence. I'll leave you to watch the show to understand the distinction.
For this reason, some of these classic British playground games are perfectly suited to the show.
Hide and seek is given a 90% chance of being featured in the second season, and is perfectly suited and international enough to be considered.
British Bulldog will leave some with find memories of a bit of rough and tumble, and others traumatised by not making it across the playground, we kind of had something similar in the final Squid game in season one, so whilst it's a fun idea bookmakers have priced it as the outsider at 33/1
Conkers
Bookmakers are offering 20/1 that a game of Conkers will appear in Squid Game season 2. I wonder if they will be able to soak them in vinegar and bake them first?

You might think 'Conkers', British parlance for the seed of the horse chestnut would be rather too inclusive and exclusive to the UK to be considered a game that Korea might write into Squid Game.
But every year in Northamptonshire, there takes place the World Conker Championships - An event that is coming close to celebrating it's 50th Anniversary after initially taking place in 1965. So it really is an international game.
And there are chestnut festivals held in countries like France, Italy, Switzerland, Spain, Greece, Romania, Portugal, Croatia, Japan, China and even Korea annually although these are the 'sweet chesnuts' rather than the 'horse' variety
