Large Scale Hydrology: Geocomputational tools that you use
For dem processing, taudem5 has a cli and arcgis toolbox and supposedly supports clusters for large problems. The gdal tools do not have a watershed tool afaik, but handle large datasets well and and can be called from a number of different languages. As others have mentioned, there are many python geoprocessing packages and some work well. I'd second rasterio, the python gdal bindings, and xarray. Pysheds looks interesting but haven't tried.

Geography of Zelda: Breath of the Wild (BotW)
Here are the shapefiles I used, and I had to digitize a map of The Shire, which was fun. My own project was based on the geographic landscape of The Shire, and how that might have influenced the Hobbitish character. Apparently the prof liked it enough that he brought it up as an example for class.
