Dave the Diver brings unique gameplay where you have to hunt for fish and other resources during the day, which is essentially preparing for the dinner service for your restaurant. The goal is simple: maximize your profits! And to do this, you will soon have to prepare some exotic dishes. These dishes are exotic for a reason: the materials needed to prepare them are not easily obtainable. You might have found that yourself while diving for fish during the day. Naturally, you may be wondering, what if diving was possible at night? Perhaps, you will find some species that are nocturnal and may be useful for the dishes you are planning to prepare. Well, if you want some guidance on diving at night, consider reading this guide until the end.
Night Diving isn’t possible right from the start of your in-game journey. So, how do you acquire this ability? Well, the night diving ability only unlocks if you have made some progress. Only then will you be able to take a trip in the evening for all that nocturnal loot. But of course, that is just a small part of the picture. Keep reading to learn more!
Dave the Diver Night Diving: How to dive at night
As we mentioned earlier, first, you will have to unlock night diving. If you did not know, Night fishing becomes available after a certain point in the game when a guest (Otto) shows up at your restaurant looking for some Moray Eel Curry. This will happen in the 2nd chapter of the game with the quest “A Noisy Customer”. Once you get the request for the curry, you will have unlocked night diving because the ingredients for this dish can only be looted from the sea at night. Explore the underwater environment and see what creatures and treasures you can discover during this time. Now that you know when this ability can be unlocked, let us take a look at how the night diving mechanic works in the game.
So, to begin with, night fishing takes place during the evening phase. What you need to do is, instead of opening the restaurant right away, go diving during this time. But the caveat is that when you choose to go night diving, it will use up 1/3 of the evening time that is typically reserved for running the restaurant. Which eventually means that you will have less time available to sell sushi and serve customers that evening. This could potentially cause fewer customers to show up at the restaurant for the evening. The key here is to plan your dives and restaurant operations accordingly so as to serve those exotic dishes without taking a hit on your customer count or overall profits.
And that is how you can dive and fish at night in Dave the Diver. We hope this was informative. For more reads like this, make sure to follow Digistatement. And while you are here, click on this link to learn how to defeat Klaus, the great white shark in Dave the Diver.
