Trick Eight Brings Hong Kong Manga Panels to G-Fusion Game Fest 2026
The deduction loop is built around a card table rather than a case board, turning the protagonist's gambling into the game's core investigation mechanic instead of a character detail.

WhisperGames showed Trick Eight, a new suspense adventure from White Babel Studio, at G-Fusion Game Fest 2026 on October 24 and 25. The game is set in an isolated village that keeps an Eight Immortals Festival custom, and its story turns on a century of mysterious deaths and a belief in Ascension. Players switch between multiple protagonists. The opening case, a snowbound mountain villa murder, doubles as the tutorial.
The playable opening casts the player as Shi, a gambler-detective who loses a rigged casino bet and is taken in by the World Security Inspection Agency with a $300 million debt. The CSC sets her a test: solve a murder at a snowbound mountain villa from the materials on hand. Investigation happens by walking through an open manga book, collecting clues and working escape-game puzzles. The deduction phase then spreads a crime-scene floor plan over what looks like a casino card table, where questions sit as red deduction cards.
