Inspiration

The inspiration behind Jawbreaker comes from taking the best parts of three horror icons and piecing them together: the oppressive atmosphere of Outlast, the stealth and combat of Alien Isolation, and the puzzles and inventory management of Resident Evil.

The gripping story Interweaved with these elements creates an experience that will stay in the minds of horror lovers for years to come.
