About

Cupid is a visual novel set in 18th Century France that explores the darker sides of love through a gothic lens. Players navigate a story driven by personal loss and revenge, making choices that shape relationships and outcomes. The narrative unfolds with branching paths, offering multiple perspectives on romance and its consequences. Simple point-and-click interactions let you respond to dialogue and advance the plot, all while soaking in the period setting’s eerie beauty. The game’s strength lies in its atmospheric art and sharp writing, which balance melodrama with genuine emotional beats. While its runtime clocks in under five hours, the impactful story and memorable characters leave a lasting impression. A small but dedicated fanbase keeps the discussion boards active, and the availability on PC, Mac and Linux makes it easy to revisit key moments. The soundtrack’s haunting melodies also earn frequent praise, adding depth to key scenes without overpowering the dialogue.
