Try Changing Your Browser Settings

If the Light Mode or Dark Mode setting on your device doesn't seem to be applying on Game8, your Browser settings are mostly likely the culprit.

Check the Settings for your Browser and see if there is a Light or Dark Mode setting which may be overriding your Device setting.

In some cases like Google Chrome on Android, Dark Mode may automatically be applied if Battery Saver is turned on. Double check to see if there is a setting which causes Light or Dark Mode to automatically be applied on your browser.
