Overview[]
The Dorm Room is your personal room where you can change and buy cosmetic clothing items, change your skin color, hair color, and facial features using the Mirror, inspect the current Weekly Challenge Reward, review the Code of Conduct, and browse the Watch Menu without worrying about the interaction with other players.
There are several objects in the room that you can play with, including a bucket, darts, a ping pong ball and paddle, a Basketball hoop, a punching dummy, a water bottle, a Radio and a Whiteboard up the ladder.
Previously, there was a community board that included information about a current featured creator, Featured Rooms, featured Instagram postings and YouTube videos. This was later changed to a board of rooms players can discover. The buttons to the right of the board that open the Privacy Policy and Help Center in web browsers still remain. The community board in the Rec Center remains unchanged.
Prior to July 7, 2023, there was a door that lead to the Rec Center from which additional doors lead to #RecRoomOriginal rooms and #Community rooms. The Rec Center door was later changed to the "Room-I-Verse" door, which opens the Play Menu on your watch.
Mirror[]
The mirror has 5 buttons:
- The "CUSTOMIZE" button allows you to change your skin color, change your face shape, change the appearance of your eyes and mouth, (de)activate ears, change your body shape, change and buy Hair, change your hair color and buy hair dyes, change and buy facial Hair, change and buy Shirts, Accessories, Hats, and Gloves.
- The DORM SKINS button allows you to purchase and spawn Dorm Skins.
- The "REC ROOM+” button allows you to start the monthly paid subscription Rec Room Plus.
- The "OUTFITS" button opens the saved outfits menu in the Profile Menu of your Watch. Here you can “Save” your current appearance (including skin color, hair color, facial features, etc.) as "saved outfits" and activate or “Load” an outfit.
- The "CUSTOM CLOTHING" button allows you to purchase custom shirts.
Customizing Your Dorm Room[]
Using the Maker Pen, you can customize your dorm room like any other Custom Room that you create. You can save changes with the "Save" button of the Details Tab of the This Room Menu of your Watch Menu.
