How to Complete the Card Puzzle in Remnant 2

You’ll first encounter this puzzle when exploring the Malefic Palace in Remnant 2. You’ll come across the Jester randomly, up to his usual antics of trickery after running his seven-hour juggling session (or at least it felt like seven hours) earlier. In front of you lay five cards, each with the same face excluding one with two halves of one face.

The Jester will begin by mixing these cards up in all sorts of mystical ways before showing you the face card and mixing them up again. He’ll end off by turning each card into a door, with you left to pick the one that has both faces on it.
