About the game
A new cult has come to Vigil, and they worship loooooooooove! Each Valentine card has a Valentine on one side of the card, and the Cupid Monster on the other side. To add the Cupid to your Ascension experience, shuffle the stack of Valentines and set them, Cupid side up, in the always available area. Players may defeat any number of Cupids during their turn. When a player gains a Valentine, they must use it immediately. If the Valentine stack runs out, reshuffle it and put it back in the always available area.
