Watch Along Rewards

Another industry first is the "Watch Along" feature that gives players of Squid Game: Unleashed in-game rewards for every episode of Season 2 they complete. Players will earn more rewards the more episodes they watch. ('Cash' = in-game currency, 'Wild Token' = a chance to spin the in-game wheel for more prizes)
