Once you’ve unlocked Genius Invokation TCG, you can click on the Cat’s Tail bar icon on your map to teleport straight inside the tavern and start playing the game mode.
Upon entering the bar for the first time, you’ll be greeted by Margaret, the owner of Cat’s Tail, as well as dozens of felines purring and laying around.
Prince, a black cat who wears a minuscule fedora hat and bow, sits on top of the counter. He is the Duel Saint of Cats and is in charge of the card community. Travelers can talk to Prince (and his right-hand man, Shuyun) to claim rewards and access the Card Shop.
