Rotating Disks

Tap to spin a stack of stubborn disks until the path lines up—one wrong turn and you're back to square one.

I spent a good ten minutes on one level convinced the game had cheated me. Then I noticed the center disk rotates opposite to the outer two. That's the hook. Rotating Disks looks simple from the thumbnail: a few rings, a dot, some colored notches. Then you tap and realize every disk turns a different amount, and the whole layout reshuffles. The orb keeps moving while you think, so you're not just solving a static puzzle—you're tracing a live path and making micro-corrections before the gap closes. The joy is in reading the tangle. You'll trace the likely path with your eyes, make a tap, watch the orb whiff past the gap by a hair, and curse. Then you'll adjust by one quarter-turn and it glides through clean. That loop—guess, fail, tiny fix—kept me coming back during breaks. The controls are just taps, but timing matters because the disks don't wait. Some levels are insultingly easy; others had me staring for minutes. That uneven difficulty is part of the charm.

Tap on screen to rotate disks and to change the direction of move.

Before tapping, watch where the moving dot actually touches the disks—not where you think it will. Outer disks usually rotate more per tap than inner ones; test with a single tap first. If a path looks impossible, check whether one disk is hiding a small notch behind the others. Don't spam taps. One deliberate turn often beats three frantic ones. In later puzzles, the dot can double back on itself—look for loops. Use the pause between levels to reset your mental model of which disk turns which way.
