An arcade game with high difficulty level. In the Disc Room we play the role of a scientist who explores a mysterious object in Jupiter's orbit, solving puzzles and avoiding ubiquitous disks capable of instantly turning it into a bloody pulp.
Disc Room is a arcade game with a high difficulty level. Four independent developers, Kitty Calis, Jan Willem Nijman, Terri Vellmann and Doseone are behind the development of this game, while Devolver Digital is responsible for its release.
Disc Room takes us on a journey into the distant future. In 2089, a mysterious disc appeared on the orbit of Jupiter. The main character of the game is a scientist who decides to explore this structure. The protagonist quickly learns that this facility is a real interstellar slaughterhouse.
In Disc Room the action is observed from the top-down view. The game is divided into small levels, each of which represents a separate logic and skill challenge. In order to make the exit from each of them open for us, we have to solve simple puzzles (consisting, for example, in changing the colours of the fields covering the floor) while avoiding the moving sprockets on the levels. As you can easily guess, these discs are able to turn a hero into a bloody pulp in no time. From time to time, we also encounter other obstacles, such as large maws capable of swallowing a hero. As we progress, however, we are unlocking skills that make our life a little easier. These include, among other things, the ability to clone or even a kind of booster that increases the speed of movement of the scientist.
Disc Room only allows you to play alone. A substitute for multiplayer competition are online rankings where we can publish our time records set at certain levels and compare our performance with other players.
Disc Room has colourful graphics in a clear, cartoon-like style.

A fast-paced arcade game with the soul of a puzzler.
Shacknews: 8 / 10 by TJ Denzer
Disc Room wants to cut you in so many ways. It wants to chew you up, dismantle you, and make you say a swear or 50 creatively woven into the same sentence. It’s bullet hell without the regular therapy of being able to return fire. But for all of those aspects, it's also horribly addicting. The ease of picking up where you left off and trying your darndest to survive just a little bit longer to unlock a room left me putting down my controller, rubbing my head, and then often picking it up to say, “this will be the time I get it. This time.” It’s not a ridiculously long or complex romp. But it also doesn’t really need to be. It knows what it wants to be. It wants to be your murderer. And the only way you’re going to thwart it is by surviving just long enough to open its next doors and beat its myriad of challenges.
ZTGD: 8.5 / 10 by Anthony Mann
Disc Room is an addictive title that lends itself to short bursts of play. On its surface it’s a very basic title, but in reality it plays with its formula in such fun ways that make it more than just dodging discs. Anyone on the fence like I was should try out the demo, which is a great taste for what the game offers, because I don’t think I’m doing this game justice. Neither does all the promotion Devolver has done for this game. Disc Room is something different, and I like it.
