Glass Bridge

Item from Squid Game by Hwang Dong-hyuk

Jump across 18 pairs of glass panels — tempered glass holds your weight, regular glass shatters and you fall into the void.

Also known as: Stepping Stones, Glass Stepping Stones

What They Know

Rules: 18 pairs of glass panels — one tempered (holds weight), one regular (shatters); players cross in numbered order
Player order determined by random draw — early positions have near-zero survival odds with no information
A glass-maker identified tempered panels by sound — the Front Man turned off the lights to neutralize this
All remaining panels shattered when the 16-minute timer expired — glass shards wounded surviving players
Han Mi-nyeo grabbed Jang Deok-su and pulled them both off the bridge — fulfilling her revenge
