What to study

Dave the Diver reports its restaurant economy as social media. The end-of-night summary is a pair of overlapping paper cards styled like perforated receipts, and the game's standing is expressed in the vocabulary of a food Instagram: the restaurant's Cooksta rank is Gold, shown as a chef's hat with one star, and progress to the next rank is a likes bar, 42 of 200, with a pink thumbs-up for an icon. The night's performance is two numbers under 'Today's Likes', NEW 17 (flagged BEST, with a green up-triangle) against a TOTAL of 172, while the second card names the dish that carried the night, Coral Trout Sushi at Lv.1, and breaks it down in one breath: price 18, taste 45, one fish per serving, sold ten times for a revenue of 180, up 26.47%. A whole management game's feedback loop, catch, menu, rank, repeat, is compressed into two cards a player can read in five seconds, and the restaurant itself is blurred away behind them so the numbers are the only thing in focus. The cards are identified by their own visible headings (Cooksta, Today's Likes, Top Sales) exactly as printed on them.

• the left card headed 'Cooksta / Gold Rank': a gold chef's-hat icon with a single star on a navy field, then a pink thumbs-up icon and a progress bar part-filled in pink, labelled '42/200'
• below a perforated tear line, 'Today's Likes' with two boxes: 'NEW' with a small pink 'BEST' tag and a green '17' with an up triangle, and 'TOTAL' with '172' in navy
• the right card, overlapping and lower, headed 'Top Sales / Coral Trout Sushi': a pixel sushi piece on a wooden board, 'Lv.1', and three stat lines with icons: 18 (coin), 45 (smiley face), 1 (fish)
• the right card's footer: 'Revenue 18 x10' and a navy pill holding a coin icon, '180' in yellow and '26.47%' beside it; a 'Top Sales (Recent)' tab peeks from the bottom edge
• behind both cards, the sushi bar interior thrown fully out of focus: warm hanging lights, shelves and the counter as soft shapes
