窗口小部件插件中的自定义字段未显示

Question

I created a custom post type and then I did the following: In the homepage I have a normal loop which I display the content of that post type like custom fields,thumbnail etc.

Then, via functions.php I created a widget that allows me to show 2 custom post types based on category. All works fine, but when I view the page the custom field does not show.

I used this code which works in my first loop of the homepage:

<?php echo get_post_meta($post->ID, 'game_offer', true); ?>

For some reason that does not work in the loop that I have in the functions for the widget.

Here the image where you can see that the custom field exists in the backend.

My code in the function looks like this in case needed:

class My_Widget extends WP_Widget {

    public function __construct() {
        $widget_ops = array( 
            'classname' => 'my_widget',
            'description' => 'Custom Post Type widget',
        );
        parent::__construct( 'my_widget', 'Cutom Post Type Widget', $widget_ops );
    }

    public function widget( $args, $instance ) {

        echo '<section id="custom_post_type_widget">';
        ?>
        <div class="top_bar">
            <h3 class="border-radius">Top Casino Offers</h3>
        </div>
        <?php
        $mypost = array( 
            'post_type' => 'game_reviews',
            'posts_per_page' => 2,
            'type'  => 'top-casino-offers',
        );

        $loop = new WP_Query( $mypost );
        while ( $loop->have_posts() ) : $loop->the_post();?>
        <div class="custom_post_widget_container flex outer">   
            <div class="left">
                <?php
                    $url = wp_get_attachment_url( get_post_thumbnail_id($post->ID) ); 
                    if ( has_post_thumbnail() ) {

                        echo '<div class="game_imag">';
                        echo the_post_thumbnail();
                        echo '</div>';
                    }  
                ?>
            </div>
            <div class="right">

                                <?php
                                    $nb_stars = intval( get_post_meta( get_the_ID(), 'game_rating', true ) );
                                    for ( $star_counter = 1; $star_counter <= 5; $star_counter++ ) {
                                        if ( $star_counter <= $nb_stars ) {
                                            echo '<img src="'.get_template_directory_uri().'/images/icon.png"/>';
                                        } else {
                                            echo '<img src="'.get_template_directory_uri().'/images/grey.png"/>';
                                        }

                                </span>

                            <ul class="custom-field-list">
                                <li><?php echo get_post_meta($post->ID, 'game_offer', true); ?></li>
                            </ul>
                            <?php echo get_post_meta($post->ID, 'game_offer', true); ?>

                        </div>
                        <div class="right">

                </div>

            </div> 
        </div> 
        <?php endwhile; ?>
    <?php wp_reset_query();

    echo '</section>';
    }
}

add_action( 'widgets_init', function(){
    register_widget( 'My_Widget' );
});

How can I show my custom field?

Use query_posts instead of WP_Query

 <?php
class My_Widget extends WP_Widget {

    public function __construct() {
        $widget_ops = array( 
            'classname' => 'my_widget',
            'description' => 'Custom Post Type widget',
        );
        parent::__construct( 'my_widget', 'Cutom Post Type Widget', $widget_ops );
    }

    public function widget( $args, $instance ) {

        echo '<section id="custom_post_type_widget">';
        ?>
        <div class="top_bar">
            <h3 class="border-radius">Top Casino Offers</h3>
        </div>
        <?php
        global $post;

                                        'showposts'   => 2,
                                        'tax_query' => array(
