In Cupid Axis you play as Alyssa, an aspiring fashionista who gets set up on a surprise blind date by her friend Charara. However, when you show up, you find some rude guy with a seriously-don't-want-to-be here attitude and who is way too hard to please.
Nearly every option makes the date start spiralling into the 'no good' zone! But wait... did time just reset?! It seems like fate is trying to give you a do-over each time so you know the right thing to say! And when you start to get along... hey... this guy is actually kind of cute?!
But... how come you're even being given this chance?
>PLAYER<
Alyssa R. Mancy (24)
As a stylist and aspiring fashionista, you'd think Alyssa would have no problem with confidence... but who can stay that way in front of a guy who frankly makes the date suck? It's her first blind date and if it doesn't go well, her friend claims she'll be alone for the rest of her life. But that can't be true - or can it? She'll just have to do her best or else!
Sage Amarus (25)
The guy you're supposed to be on a blind date with... but he's seriously RUDE! From the moment you enter the restaurant, he won't even bother to look at you. What the heck was your friend thinking by choosing this guy?! Neither of you want to be here it seems, but you need to at least try, right? Except somehow you keep making it go from bad to worse. That's fine... except this guy is witness to the worst possible situation and you'd rather erase that memory than live with it!
Waiter??? ("My age is a mystery best left to the ears of sweet petunias.")
WHO IS THIS GUY?! All you know is he's your waiter on this date, and he's way over-the-top! Cartwheeling, wiggling, spewing inconceivable lines of dialogue... And somehow... you're getting to know him as the march of doom on your date. Watch out!
