I’m almost sure it’s her master’s last game. Yuki will lose an eye and will receive one from her master along with a wish to win 99 games.

Yeah - that's pretty much exactly my prediction too.

Food shouldn’t be a problem. People can survive quite a long time without food.

Well yeah, but in the folktale, it's not about starvation or anything - it's just that the Tanuki tricks them.

I can easily see how the vast majority of the players die but would it be really considered so significant?

Right - that's why I assume there's going to be something more to it - something even worse than a lot of people dying - because it's remembered as "a bad one."
