Dave the Diver was inspired by a real oceanside seafood restaurant… and Metal Gear Solid

A scuba diver

It might seem strange to hear that a fishing and sushi restaurant management game was inspired, in part, by the Metal Gear Solid series. But it makes more sense after you've played Dave the Diver. Sure, you spend a lot of time fishing and serving food, but among other surprises the game also has a few stealth sequences, including one where Dave has to slip past a bunch of armed goons on patrol.

There are even giant cardboard boxes involved… though naturally Dave isn't quite as good at that sort of thing as Solid Snake.
