The covers are carried over from the original Chinese release of the series and are illustrated by Qian Er Bai, who is also the artist for the manhua adaptation of Dinghai Fusheng Records. Brand-new interior illustrations for the English release will be provided by artist nokdock4.
The series is an example of the “infinite flow” genre of Chinese webnovels, which see their protagonists traveling through a variety of highly themed settings in which they are tasked with completing missions and surviving. The Lucky Egg Game is Seven Seas’ first infinite flow danmei, and depending on its success, the publisher may choose to greenlight more licenses from the genre.
Seven Seas provides the following volume summary:
Two young men must survive a deadly supernatural game in this action-packed danmei/Boys’ Love series!
Architecture student Lin Jue never expected his Friday night to end in bloodshed. After receiving a “lucky egg,” he’s dragged into a deadly game where survival isn’t a goal—it’s the only rule. And when the brilliant but unreadable medical student Song Hanzhang saves his life, Lin Jue forms an ironclad bond with this man who reveals nothing and misses nothing.
The two must rely on each other to survive the brutal trials of the Devil’s Hunting Ground, from ravenous creatures to equally desperate players. But in this ruthless game, trust may be the most dangerous gamble of all. As alliances fracture and morality slips away, the true questions come to light: Who is actually pulling the strings—and when the last dawn rises, will Song Hanzhang still be standing at Lin Jue’s side?
