A Gentle Slice of Retired Life

Sips and Sonnets is a fully voice-acted, cozy visual novel with tea-brewing mechanics, branching dialogue, and a poetry-writing minigame. You’ll chat with customers, listen to their stories, and craft poems inspired by the people you meet—all while enjoying a soothing, watercolor-inspired artstyle and an original soundtrack.

The game features powerhouse voice talent, including Bethan Dixon Bate (Baldur’s Gate 3, Warhammer: Vermintide) and Lenval Brown (Disco Elysium), bringing Miss Meadows’ world to life with warmth and depth.

Pour Tea, Share Stories, Write Poetry

At its heart, Sips and Sonnets is about connection. Players brew teas for patrons, learn more about their lives, and use those conversations as inspiration for Miss Meadows’ poems to her childhood friend, Esmée. With thoughtful choices and multiple endings, the game offers a heartfelt 2–4 hour journey through themes of aging, solitude, and the quiet joy of human interaction.
