'''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~~ is to ~~take~~ control of ~~one~~ of ~~eight~~ [[Baby Globox|~~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).
