## The story

Joystick Jawbreaker let you play the hardest game in the arcade: reaching the center. The candy ball sat on top of a chunky plastic stick and base, so you could park it on your desk between licks like a tiny control panel. Every layer was a new color, and kids compared their levels like high scores.

## Fun fact

The fire button did absolutely nothing, but every kid who owned one clicked it roughly a million times.
