This is a retelling of the hit indie game "Cuphead". It tells the story of Cuphead and Mugman, two brothers who live in the mystical Inkwell Isles. While exploring, the boys stumble upon the Devil's Casino. They have a good run of luck, but then the Devil himself shows up and strikes them a deal: if they win, they get the whole casino, but if they lose, the Devil takes their souls. Cuphead blindly accepts--and loses! The Devil takes pity on the poor mugs and gives them a task: collect the soul contracts of his debtors in two days. Will they collect all the souls in time, or will the Devil take their own?!
The Delicious Last Course takes place a week after the rest of the series. The Legendary Chalice, who prefers to be called Alice Chalice, takes our cup boys to her home, the mysterious DLC Island. One of her friends, Chef Saltbaker, has come up with a recipe for a Wondertart that'll turn Alice corporeal again, and she needs their help getting the ingredients from some fearsome foes. Will they be able to get the ingredients and make the Wondertart?
Sure, you might have heard this story before if you've played the game, but I'm trying to put my own spin on this, y'know, fleshing out the plot and characters more. I really enjoy writing this, and I hope you enjoy reading it.
I do not own Cuphead, only this interpretation of it and the character Candy Camera. Cover art by DeviantArt user thatonegalaxygirl. I have also borrowed a few lines from Indeimaus, Slimecicle, Vine, and tamago2474, among other places.
Once at a young age of 5, your family was murdered by the Devil himself and King Dice and you were forced to survive on your own. At age 14 you learned about the casino and you return but you don't seem to remember anything when you came here for the ball but you saw someone very familiar that had a dice for a head but you couldn't remember anything all you cared about was your revenge on the two who took your parents and sisters lives. At age 22 you return to the casino for your birthday and you realized you had a gambling talent from your great grandmother whenever she gambled in her time. As you visited the casino you meet the only man..King Dice who offers you a chance to show off your skills at the "Gambling Games" they host every year and as the games go on you end up falling for the handsome Dice you fell for whenever you saw him the first time when you meet him and in your head you think..."Why do I love this man and why does he look so familiar?......"
