The missing Titanic sub seems to be having an impact on this horror game’s sales.

Iron Lung, an $5.99 indie game for the PC and Switch, puts you inside a compact submarine where you must navigate an eerie ocean of blood using only the grainy pictures taken from outside the vessel.

The game’s developer, David Szymanski, saw sales spike on June 20th — just a couple of days after OceanGate’s tourist submersible lost contact with the surface. The sub, which is controlled using a simple Logitech gamepad, was supposed to journey toward the Titanic’s shipwreck that lies about 13,000 feet at the bottom of the ocean.
