Published by Tigervision for the Atari 2600, Jawbreaker brings the dot-eater formula to a maze of candy, with the player eating sweets while avoiding a trio of rival jaws patrolling the scenery. It's one of the many clones that emerged as soon as the Pac-Man phenomenon reached the West, with cosmetic rather than mechanical variations. A catalog curiosity for anyone wanting to see how a successful formula got replicated in the pre-strict-licensing era.
