Introduction
Jawbreaker is a thrilling one-player game of narrow escapes and sudden danger. You control the Jawbreaker, a powerful set of teeth, and race through a maze of shifting walls and doors. Y our score climbs as you clear each screen by devouring Dots and Special Treats. A toothbrush cleans your teeth to get you ready for more action. Avoid the Grinning Gobblers as they come at you from either side. Eating Energizers gives you the power to chase and destroy the Gobblers. Watch out-your power is only temporary. Soon the Grinning Gobblers will turn and attack!
With Jawbreaker, you can:
- Play any one of five increasingly difficult levels of the game
