Some games are thrilling. Others are tense. And then there are games like Three Sisters—games that wrap you in warmth, settle you into a rhythm, and make you feel at home among rows of corn, bees, and perennials. Designed by Ben Pinchback & Matt Riddle and brought to life with Beth Sobel’s charming art, Three Sisters is a roll-and-write game with roots in something far older than cardboard: companion planting, a centuries-old practice of growing corn, beans, and squash together in harmony.
But what if we could make that harmony audible?
🎵 An Ambient Soundtrack for the Backyard Garden
To complement the game’s gentle pacing and thoughtful mechanics, we’ve created a 10-track ambient soundtrack inspired by the gameplay phases, themes, and natural cycles in Three Sisters. Each piece is designed to enhance your play session or provide a calming background for reading, gardening, or reflecting.
Track highlights include:
- “Morning in the Garden” – a warm, ambient opener that evokes the fresh start of a growing day
- “Quiet Toolshed” – minimal and meditative, capturing the slow preparation and planning phase
- “The Apiary” – tranquil and flowing, reflecting the quiet buzz of productivity among the hives
- “Evening Harvest” – a gentle closing piece, full of satisfaction and restful tones
The full soundtrack is ambient, non-intrusive, and loops beautifully—ideal for a focused game or a lazy afternoon.
🎨 Art in the Style of the Soil
To bring this cozy world to life visually, we also created AI-generated illustrations that mimic the board’s charming, hand-drawn aesthetic. Using a soft, earthy palette and watercolor-like textures, the visuals celebrate each part of the game:
- Rows of companion crops flourishing in harmony
- A rustic shed filled with tools and upgrades
- A peaceful orchard buzzing with bees
- Perennial flower beds blooming with strategic potential
- And of course, Farmer Edith’s watchful eyes in solo play…
These images capture the spirit of the gameboard and expand the world of Three Sisters beyond the score sheet.
