There is no precise SET BREAK command that can be used to do that.

But that doesn’t help you when it never uses that address.

Doesn’t help you to find out how to get to the last point.

You can only do that be reading the code and seeing
what code transfers control to the code in the last point
and under what conditions of say points scored it will
allow the player to go there. SET BREAK doesn’t do that.
