Prince Harry’s recent naked Las Vegas hotel room adventures have inspired a new online video game, where players help the stripped-down royal escape a hotel before being caught on camera.

In Save Harry, an animated Harry preserves his modesty with his hands. Players use the arrow keys on their keyboards to move Harry around and the spacebar to duck and hide him, all the while trying to avoid camera-brandishing girls in bikinis, hotel staff, and, in the final level of the game, the army. Players can also collect items for extra points.

If Harry gets photographed, the player loses.

The designers of Save Harry are two developers behind the website GamesOnly.

“To us, the way in which this prince made the news was so funny that we simply had to use this opportunity,” 22-year-old GamesOnly founder Robin Ras said in an email to TechCrunch.

It’s been about two weeks now since a couple of photos of Prince Harry cavorting around naked with an equally bare woman in a Las Vegas hotel room were leaked to the press. It has been reported that the photos had been snapped with a mobile phone camera.

Here’s a look at Save Harry:
