Does anyone know why Jawbreaker is so called ????

I can't see the connection between a lot of coloured balls and breaking a jaw ????

That's it...because they look like "jawbreaker" candies.

Sounds a good enough explanation..........It's a very addictive game - almost cracked 3,000 last week - how sad is that ?????

Did you break your jaw while playing it?

I seem to have managed to delete Jawbreaker from my X50v. Is there a way to get it back? It does not appear to be on the software cd. I have no idea how I did this.

"Wow I feel insignificant with my <500 scores"

The scores increases almost by the square.
Actually by x(x-1)

eg: 10 of the same color together gives
10(10-1) = 90 points

Just one more gives
110 points

Best luck :-)

We call our Axim with Jawbreaker our "bar toy."

Gettin' to the gin mill without our Axim is like sitting down to read Websters dictionary. Jawbreaker is certainly addictive. Try it!

Try this strategy.

Make a very quick assessment of the filled screen. It should be fairly obvious, for example, that perhaps there are less balls of one particular colour. Clear these (as far as you can). Repeat the process, re-visiting and removing previously selected for deletion colours where possible, until you are left with predominantly one colour. Removing balls of that final colour will give you your big score. Following that, try to delete balls from the bottom left of the screen as much as you can. This will generate more balls. If you manage to almost fill the screen again - start the strategy all over again.

Go for it. Have fun.
