(FF8) Final Fantasy VIII : Queen Of Cards (Side Quest) Guide

Game Guides

The Queen Of Cards side quest can be regarded as a rather long drawn out one, which requires a lot of travelling around, hoping for good region rules and of course plenty of Triple Triad.
The good thing about this is that the quest opens up a lot of unique cards that are only available during this quest. 

In order to activate this quest you need to be in Balamb Town, near the Train Station you will encounter a woman who seems to dressed rather differently and stands out quite a bit, upon talking to her you’ll realise she is the Queen of Cards.

However, she has very specific rules depending on what region you are currently in. She also has a habbit of running off after playing Triple Triad and beating her. You also need to loose specific cards to her in order to unlock new ones too.

So below is a guide on where she is located, what cards you need to loose and which ones unlock upon doing so.
