Dishaster is an action game released for the Atari 2600 in 1983 by Zimag.[1] Another version of the game was released by Bit Corporation under the name Dancing Plates which features oriental-themed graphics and adds eight game variations.[2]
Dishaster was inspired by the circus tradition of keeping spinning plates suspended on poles.[1] The player controls a girl attempting to keep a group of several spinning plates balanced on poles from falling. The game received negative reviews; criticism focused on the game's repetition and monotony.
