Mashing buttons since 1984
Dave the Diver is a delight. It is also a:
Resource gathering game
Restaurant sim
Rhythm game
Bullet-hell shmup
Mini-game collection (think Warioware, Iron Chef-style)
Farming sim
It is all those things while also secretly advocating that we take care of our greatest natural resource, our oceans.
Don’t waste your time reading any more reviews for Dave the Diver. Just go get it and play. I promise you will finish the first day with a smile on your face.
9.5/10
It’s another great weekend for some gaming! After a steady diet of Starfield and Inscryption for me, I decided to take a break for something a little more light-hearted and downloaded Dave the Diver. I’m 30 minutes in and I’m sold — I’m going to be playing this a lot in the foreseeable future. It’s got everything I like — exploring, resource gathering, crafting (cooking) and of course sushi! It’s Lemonade Stand for the twenty first century. This game is definitely in my wheelhouse!
In addition to Diving with Dave, I’ll be playing a little more Starfield, maybe some Forza and definitely some more Inscryption.
What are you playing this weekend?
