To harness the power of Tarot cards, you first need to acquire them. The primary method is through purchasing Arcana Packs from the in-game Shop. Additionally, you can often buy individual Tarot cards directly from the Shop. Another way to obtain these cards is by discarding a card with a Purple Seal.

Using Tarot Cards

Tarot cards are consumable items that you can use immediately upon acquisition. They are located in the top right corner of your screen. To use a Tarot card, simply select it, and a set of cards that it can affect will appear. Choose the number of cards specified by the Tarot card, confirm your selection, and watch as the card's effects are applied to your chosen cards.
