Released in 1990 by Tom Spreen, Breaker is a top-down arcade game in which players guide a character named Og around a maze, eating food while the shape of the playfield is constantly reshaped by the player and other characters in motion. The result is a frenetic, ever-changing puzzle of pursuit and evasion.
Gameplay
Players control Og as he scurries through the level collecting food. The trick is that the map itself is mutable: walls and corridors shift as the action unfolds, forcing players to plan routes that may not exist a moment later.
