=== Different rules === In [[Korea]], where the standard version of the game is called ''gawi-bawi-bo'', a more complex version exists by the name ''[[muk-jji-ppa]]''.<ref>{{cite web |url=https://www.hancinema.net/play-muk-zzi-ppa-the-upgraded-rock-paper-scissors-30907.html |title=Play muk-zzi-ppa! The upgraded rock-paper-scissors |date=2011-06-25 |publisher=[[Hancinema]] |access-date=2014-02-06 |archive-date=2014-02-21 |archive-url=https://web.archive.org/web/20140221143748/http://www.hancinema.net/play-muk-zzi-ppa-the-upgraded-rock-paper-scissors-30907.html |url-status=live }}</ref> After showing their hands, the player with the winning throw shouts "''muk-jji-ppa!''" upon which both players throw again. If they throw differently, whoever wins this second round shouts "''muk-jji-ppa!''" and thus the play continues until both players throw the same, at which point whoever was the last winner becomes the final winner. In "rock paper scissors minus one", another popular variant in Korea, both players throw with both hands simultaneously. Each player chooses one hand to remove, and the winner is decided by the remaining hands in play; a tie leads to a replay.<ref>{{cite web |url=https://medium.com/kontinentalist/how-rock-paper-scissors-is-played-around-asia-46d1d8c93be3 |title=How rock paper scissors is played around Asia |date=2019-07-29 |publisher=[[Medium (website)|Medium]] |access-date=2021-11-24 |archive-date=2021-11-25 |archive-url=https://web.archive.org/web/20211125013142/https://medium.com/kontinentalist/how-rock-paper-scissors-is-played-around-asia-46d1d8c93be3 |url-status=dead }}</ref> This variation was featured in the second season of the [[Netflix]] series ''[[Squid Game]].'' In Japan, a [[strip game]] variant of rock paper scissors is known as 野球拳 (''[[Yakyūken]]''). The loser of each round removes an article of clothing. The game is a minor part of porn culture in Japan and other Asian countries after the influence of TV variety shows and [[Soft On Demand]]. In the [[Philippines]], the game is called ''jak-en-poy'' (from the Japanese ''jankenpon''). In a longer version of the game, a four-line song is sung, with hand gestures displayed at the end of each (or the final) line: "Jack-en-poy! / Hali-hali-hoy! / Sino'ng matalo, / siya'ng unggoy!" ("Jack-en-poy! / Hali-hali-hoy! / Whoever loses is the monkey!") In the former case, the person with the most wins at the end of the song, wins the game. A shorter version of the game uses the chant "Bato-bato-pick" ("Rock-rock-pick [i.e. choose]") instead.{{Citation needed|date=February 2024}} A variation with more players can be played: Players stand in a circle and all throw at once. If rock, paper, and scissors are all thrown, it is a stalemate, and they rethrow. If only two throws are present, all players with the losing throw are eliminated. Play continues until only the winner remains.<ref>{{Cite book|title=The Official Rock paper Scissors Strategy Guide|last=Walker|first=Douglas and Graham|publisher=Simon & Schuster|year=2004|isbn=0-7432-6751-6|location=Bloomington, IN|pages=[https://archive.org/details/officialrockpape00walk/page/140 140]|url=https://archive.org/details/officialrockpape00walk/page/140}}</ref>
