Ddakji

Ddakji is the first game Gi-hun plays in episode one of Squid Game, with the salesman played by actor Gong Yoo. To play Ddakji, players try to flip their opponent's folded paper tiles with their own. In Squid Game, the loser owes the winner £70, and if the other player can't pay, they get slapped. Gong Yoo uses the game to test how far each player is willing to go to win money, setting the tone for the series.

How to Win: The game is not necessarily about strength, but angles. Aim for the edge.
