The social media hero of Turkey, Mohammed Fadel Dobbous known as the “Irish tourist,” has not only encouraged thousands in Turkey with his boxing moves that beat a mass of shopkeepers in Istanbul’s Aksaray district, but also has given a video game inspiration.

A viral video showed the “Irish tourist,” who was claimed to be a professional boxer and of Irish-Kuwaiti descent, getting into a fight with locals after accidentally spilling a fridge full of water bottles.  

His struggle with around 15 shopkeepers attempting to hit him while he was unarmed with sticks, chairs and other blunt items and his subsequent knock out of every shop keeper have inspired a PC game.

The game was introduced to the market by a team of video game developers of a website. The video game has already hit the top of the most popular games list.

Players can control the movements of the “Irish tourist” character and punch shopkeepers by the space button. The key instruction is to avoid depleting his life bar.
