The Game 8C by Ryuichi Murai

Ryuichi Murai reports on Insta that he had done The Game in Boulder Canyon which was his tenth 8C. "Iโ€™m so happy to send Danielโ€™s masterpiece ! It took 2 days to send. First day, this boulder was bad condition due to rain and snow. I could do compression moves of upper part on the day, but bottom part (from start holds to 3rd hold) was so wet, and I couldnโ€™t do. Second day, this boulder was better condition and I managed to climb it in the evening. When I touched this boulder at the first time, I was certain that I can climb because Iโ€™m good at roof climbing and compression moves. So I could do quick ascent though it's a hard problem."
