The countdown to Squid Game Season 3 has begun, and Singapore’s restaurant scene is bringing the nostalgic childhood challenges to life with a deliciously competitive twist. Seven establishments across the island are inviting diners to step into the arena and play their way to free meals, desserts, and even a year’s supply of signature dishes.
Unlike the Netflix series’ high-stakes drama, these games promise only great food, fun challenges, and plenty of rewards for winners. From traditional Korean games like ddakji to classic Thailand and Singaporean pastimes, here’s where you can channel your inner Player 456 without any of the terrifying consequences.
