'''''Globox Disc''''' is a multi-player minigame that was first seen in the Dreamcast version of [[Rayman 2: The Great Escape|Rayman 2]]. In this version the minigame could be unlocked when you collected all six of the Globox Crystals that were scattered at various points of the game, and could be found in the [[Globox Village]]. It is also available in Rayman Revolution, in which it is known as 'BDisc' and is unlockable via the [[Magic Well]].
{{Quote|text=Play the Game of the Gods! Wise men say that at the dawn of time the gods fought among themselves for power over the [[Lum]]s. In this troubled period, [[Glade of Dreams|the world]] was as flat as a disk and the [[Lum]]s came out of its center. There was only one way to catch the [[Lum]]s. That was to go to [[Heart of the World|the center of the disk]], get as many [[Lum]]s as possible and take them to one of the bases at the limit of the disk. Now it's your turn to repeat the feat of the gods!|sign=In-game description|source=''[[Rayman 2]]''}}


==Objective==
'''Globox Disc''', sometimes abbreviated as simply '''the Disk''' and alternatively known as the '''Glorbe''' and the '''Disk of the Gods''', is a minigame which was created as an exclusive bonus for the Dreamcast version of ''[[Rayman 2]]''. It was later included in ''[[Rayman Revolution]]'', under the abbreviated name '''Glob Disk''', or the further-abbreviated name '''BBDisc'''. The minigame is said to be a re-enactment of a mythic battle between the gods at the dawn of time, when they fought for control of the [[Yellow Lum]]s (hence yet another alternate name, '''the Game of the Gods''').
The aim of the game was to take control of one of eight Globox babies, each with their own distinctive features and colours, and run through a circular rotating maze collecting an assortment of power-ups while trying to pick up the Lum that's located at the centre of the maze.
 
In the minigame, the player takes control of a [[baby Globox]] of their choice. The options include a standard blue male [[Baby Globox|baby]], a standard pink female baby, [[Brainox]], [[Bimbette]], [[Catastrox]], [[Hardrox]], [[Oktette]] and an unnamed yellow [[Baby Globox|baby]]. The player controls [[Baby Globox|the baby]] of their choice as they make their way through a revolving disc-shaped labyrinth, collecting power-ups and avoiding dangerous objects and red [[Jano]]-like creatures. The player must grab some glowing lights (representing [[Yellow Lum]]s) from the center of the Disc, then get them to a base at one of the Disc's corners. When the symbolic [[Lum]]s are taken to a base, the player gains a number of points. The game offers multiple customisable options regarding how many points are required to win and whether or not there is a time limit. The game also features multiplayer options, where two players can compete for [[Lum]]s.
 
In the Dreamcast version, Globox Disc is the third of three minigames accessible from the [[Globox Village]], the first being [[Pyralums]] and the second being [[Weblums]]. In order to open the portal leading to Globox Disc, [[Rayman]] must collect all of the six [[Glob Crystal]]s which are hidden throughout the game. In this version, Globox Disc has its own cinematic intro sequence, in which the player gets to see some wall-inscriptions apparently made by [[Globox]]es to describe the legend of the Glorbe. A [[baby Globox]] nearby then drops [[Four Masks of Polokus|the third mask of Polokus]] into the lake of [[Globys]], causing the [[Father of all the Globox]]'s statue to arise and reveal the Disc itself for the [[Globox's species|Globox people]] to play.
 
In ''[[Rayman Revolution]]'', BBDisc is one of the three minigames accessible from the [[Magic Well]]s. It is unlocked by paying 200 [[Yellow Lum]]s after buying all power upgrades – overall, 800 [[Yellow Lum]]s must be collected to reach this stage. The player can then purchase access to the [[Dogfight|Missile Dogfight]] for an additional 150 [[Yellow Lum]]s (950 [[Yellow Lum]]s must be collected overall), and [[Baby Football]] for another 50 [[Yellow Lum]]s (all 1000 [[Yellow Lum]]s must be collected).
