while the topic makes next to know sense im asking for help
i have some encrypted text from a very old game called perplexcity and i want to crack it i know the key is 8 characters but i have no idea how to modify or write a program to brute force it using well gpus

it stands to reason that the bitcoin miners work on a similar basis i was hoping  someone might be able to help me out

the text  looks likes hex code and ill transscribe it in a moment but the top has 64/12/8 above the block and 5 cows on the bottom
the card was called the 13th labor

text block begins :

this card was solved via brute force solution a few years ago but the answer was never revealed
thanks

Bitcoin miners use SHA256 function. Not much of that can be reused for other brute forcing purposes.

What encryption it uses? 8 characters are 64-bit key. Might be brutable on modern hardware.
