Description: Dave the Diver is an adventure video game developed and published by Mintrocket. Players control Dave, a hard-working diver, as he collects fish, solves quests, and manages a sushi restaurant. It has elements of management, action-adventure, and role-playing video games. It was released in June 2023 for macOS and Windows, with a Switch version released in October 2023.
Description: Players primarily control Dave, a deep sea diver who is talked into managing a sushi restaurant and supplying it with the fish they need. He fishes at a spot called the Blue Hole whose geography and fauna change daily. Players can collect resources to upgrade or craft new items for Dave to use, such as diving gear and weapons to use in boss fights against giant underwater creatures. Dave's air supply is decreased faster as he becomes overburdened, and he becomes more susceptible to predators, such as sharks. Being defeated in combat causes Dave to drop all his cargo except one item as he is rescued.

Description: Japanese Horror - The Ghost of the Well (Banchō Sarayashiki) is one of Japan's most famous ghost stories (onryō). Okiku was a servant accused of losing a valuable heirloom plate by a samurai whose romantic advances she rejected. Distraught, she threw herself into a well; her ghost famously rises at night to count plates from one to nine before wailing. This legend heavily inspired modern J-horror tropes, including the iconic imagery in The Ring.
