Tearing Around Turkey, the video game
Did I mention that pedestrians jump in front of your car at all times and on all roads? The drivers seem sensible but the pedestrians are daring. Imagine a video racing game where you have to maneuver a washing machine box powered by a lawn mower down small streets and sidewalks (yes I said sidewalks). The challenge that you must achieve every time you play is to get the kids to school within a two minute window so that they are not late nor do they feel awkward for being the first in their home room to arrive. Now change the language on the street signs to a sort of Slavic Japanese, give the three under-age kids in the back seat opinions on how to drive and best of all, have pedestrians jump in front of your car every time you slow down to less than 60 km per hour or leave more than 6 feet between you and the next car. And by the way, if you ever hit a pedestrian in this game it really is "game over". It's a rush for sure and I haven't decided yet whether throwing coffee into the mix is an advanced stage for only the best gamers or just not advisable.
