Final Fantasy 7 Rebirth Card Carnival puzzle solutions
How to solve every Costa del Sol Card Carnival puzzle in FF7 Rebirth.
Card Carnival is a variation of the Queen's Blood minigame in Final Fantasy 7 Rebirth.
This Costa del Sol variation mixes up the minigame's usual turn-based gameplay, as all of your opponents cards are played straight away instead, and you only have a handful of set cards to place yourself. This means you have to play your cards in a very specific way to win a challenge.
To help you progress with the story in Final Fantasy 7 Rebirth and get all of its optional rewards, including all the swimsuit outfits, we've detailed all Card Carnival puzzle solutions in Final Fantasy 7 below, which includes all of the essential solutions you need to get a Companion Card for Cloud.
