Squid Game, since its Season 1, has blown away people with its insane and out-of-the-box concept, and now, after an equally phenomenal season 2, fans are left waiting for the next season courtesy of the cliffhanger the season ended with. Even though the people who run Squid Game are extremely anonymous, we have seen that the crew of Squid Game wears masks with shapes on them that give them some sense of identity while being anonymous. Now the question is, what do the shapes on crew masks mean in Squid Game? Let’s find out!
Squid Game Shapes Ranking Explained
In Squid Game, we see that the crew who is in charge of making sure the games run smoothly under the command of ‘The Frontman’ wears red jumpsuits along with a black mask. These masks, while concealing the identity of the crew member, also modulate their voices to further ensure anonymity. However, each of these masks has shapes of circles, triangles, and squares painted on them.
The shapes on the masks of the crew members represent the ranks each one of them has in Squid Game. Here is how shapes in Squid Game rank:
- The square-masked crew members are the commanders.
- The triangle-masked ones are the armed guardsmen with automatic and heavy weapons.
- The circle-masked ones are the lowermost in the ranking in Squid Game. They are responsible for cleaning up after a game concludes and doing all other menial work.
While these crew members are all distinguished by a clean and well-put-out chain of command, The Frontman’s mask is completely different from the others, which also denotes his higher ranking as what you can say, the Commander-in-Chief. So, with that being said, now you know all you need to know about the shapes in Squid Game and their ranking. Now, we are eagerly waiting for Squid Game Season 3.
