One of my friends told me someone in our class is giving them trouble. I want to talk to this person and ask them to stop, but my friend is embarrassed. What should I do? Steve, Sydney Hey Steve! You sound like a good friend! Speaking to them seems like a good idea – just remember to be cool and don’t act like them! If that doesn’t work, talk to a teacher or parent. I have a lot of great teachers, including my academic decathlon teacher who always makes sure everyone is happy at school. Or I did have teachers, when I was at school, as a kid, which I’m not now. I’m a man. Spider-Man. Anyway, good luck! spider-man I don’t understand what we are learning about at school…

NEED TO KNOW Minecraft Dungeons is... weird. The mining is different and there isn’t any crafting, but it’s deffo still a Minecraft game! While you won’t be digging holes, you will be in deep, dark mines. That’s just one of the seven booming biomes in Dungeons. You’ll also be mining stacks of sweet loot. No need to call out ‘mine’ if you play with mates; there’s enough for everyone. If you are playing alone, remember to summon a savvy supernatural companion to watch your back. You can also do that while you’re plunging into a dungeon with a bud (or three). Even with a bunch of your friends helping you out, Dungeons has tricky fights. Make it rain arrows at range, or prepare to get your slash on when the…

NEED TO KNOW We got Hot Wheels in Forza Horizon 3, and now Forza Horizon 4 is combining two of our faves. Stacks of fast cars, and bucketloads of LEGO! This game really puts the ‘You have to C it to believe it’ into ‘DLC’. All the high-speed hijinks of Forza are still in there, but LEGO Speed Champions expands the awesome with LEGO Brick Challenges. There are many buildable, life-sized LEGO models of the fastest of the fast available. The McLaren Senna and Ferrari F40 Competizione, just as an example. The cute cars haven’t been left out either. Tear up the yellow brick road in a 1967 Mini Cooper S Rally or veer off the track and tear up LEGO flowers. Drive by Pirate’s Cove, fly past a crashed…

NEED TO KNOW Big, bad Capital B has issued a Challenge (with a capital ‘C’); tackle his Impossible Lair. That might sound just like the ultimate level in an awesome platformer, but in Yooka-Laylee and the Impossible Lair, you can totes try to beat it at any time. Yup, even right out of the gate. This spin-off to the orig Yooka-Laylee is a little different. It still has the lizard legend, Yooka, and his batty best bud, Laylee, but it mixes it up with a sweet combination of tricky 2D platforming and an overworld to explore (like Link’s Awakening). There’s still stacks of secrets to sniff out, and tons of collectables. At the end of the day, it’s all training for the main event... the Impossible Lair. Before you take…

Battletoads First up, we’re all getting this toad-ally rad revival of one of the trickiest action-platformers ever made. Not an opinion. Totally a fact. It’s Battletoads! Jump into the warty skin of this trio of tough toads alone, or in co-op with up to three toads. Slap, kick and super your way through all the exciting levels, then flick the sticks with super fast reflexes to beat all those tricky racing courses. New Super Lucky’s Tale What’s this? We totes played Lucky’s awesome tale in 2017! Well, it wasn’t like this game. Lucky’s leaping off Xbox One and PC, and crash landing on Switch. However, it isn’t all the same. The ‘New’ part of the title applies to stacks of stuff! There are more coin-packed levels, an even bigger story,…

Isaac, Vic This Minecraft fair took around 35 minutes to build. My favourite part is the giant roller-coaster! Hughie, Qld This is a school I created for my village in Minecraft! Shaylee, NSW I made this camp site with concrete blocks in Minecraft. It sits in a crater and the tent is split down the middle. One half is for me, the other half is for my brother! Angus, Tas This is a real life Steve from Minecraft! He has real shoes, a beard and more. It took me half an hour! I wanna shout out to videogames! – Samuel…

Jungle bungle People often call lions the ‘king of the jungle’ but the reality couldn’t be further from the truth. The big cats roam the savannah and open plains, not dense forest. Lions are great sprinters and will lay low to surprise their prey, usually catching their target over short distances. The feline predators would struggle to use this hunting method in the thick undergrowth of a jungle! Lazy lies There is a common misconception that the lionesses in a pride do all the hunting, while the male lions laze around. Turns out, both take care of dinner! The males spend a lot of time patrolling and protecting their territory, while the females are away and hunting for food. Taking care of the pride is a team effort! People also…

LEV-I CAN’T BELIEVE IT! From August 1-4, international athletes and sports fans will head to Minneapolis, USA for X Games Minneapolis 2019! The best athletes are invited to compete in the BMX, Skateboard and Moto X events. This photo shows Levi Sherwood casually flipping through the air – he’s a five-time X Games medallist and has the most X-Fighter wins in history! Sherwood also won the first Nitro World Games Freestyle in 2017, so he is definitely used to being on a podium. The New Zealand legend was unfortunately unable to defend his X Games Minneapolis 2017 gold in the Moto X Best Trick and Freestyle in 2018, due to an injury. Now that Levi’s back in action, we can’t wait to see what he’ll do in Freestyle and Best…

NEED TO KNOW Get ready to make a splash in a new core Pokémon adventure. We took a dip in a fight against Nessa, a Water-type gym boss. Before the brawl, we had to swim through super-soaked challenges, tackle lake-loving lackeys, and switch our way past watery pillars. The big battle got bigger with the neat new Dynamax feature. This turns all the Poké pals into towering fighters! Make sure you have the space to pop it, then enjoy livin’ that larger-than-life Pokémon dream. That isn’t even close to all the new! Limp to victory with devilish Impadimp, or fall in love with Yamper, the corgi with a heart on its butt. Both are new additions for your Pokédex. You’ll discover more in the open-world Wild Area, which has a…

NEED TO KNOW We are gonna drop right now and give you 20 reasons why you’ll get a kick out of FIFA 20. Play in the streets with Volta mode. Build a football legend, or bring in the big names. Volta has EZier flicks and skill moves. There’s no out-of-bounds. Boot the ball off the wall for new strats. For all parts of the pitch, there’s Football Intelligence. Huh? It’s better ball physics for new shot angles. Boosted game flow. The AI is more realistic on defense. The players spread out for more play opps. It’s also simpler to win back the ball in a 1v1. New tackling boosts defend even more. Clean tackles help win back those possessions. When you have got the ball, Strafe Dribbling is the neatest…

NEED TO KNOW The epic Star Wars galaxy is about to get a whole lot more epic. There are movies, TV shows, books and comics. Now we have a new official story, in this game. You will see familiar places and faces in Star Wars Jedi: Fallen Order. There’s Chewie’s home world, Kashyyyk, from Revenge of the Sith. The rogue one from Rogue One (and The Clone Wars), Saw Gerrera, also appears. Help Saw and his rogue Rebel rabble battle the Empire. Climb up a lumbering AT-AT while an epic battle rages. Bash, slash and Force smash your way through the machine until it’s yours. The walking tank can’t go everywhere, so swap the AT-AT for Jedi boots. Reg bucketheads are no match for Cal Kestis’ Force powers, but tough…

NEED TO KNOW We love games, you love games, and the hero in RPG Time: The Legend of Wright loves ’em too. He loves them so much, he’s already been doodling a few plans for one or two (or a whole stack). RPG Time looks like you’re playing a game on the hand-drawn pages of his journals. His story goes that when school is out, it’s finally (RPG) time to game. The talented scribbler is interested in many different games. You’ll be able to conquer armies, fight Godzilla-sized monsters and avoid deadly traps. Next, try cracking the tricky puzzles, and maybe draw in a treasure chest for sweet rewards! You will play all of this over multiple turning pages, but sometimes the action is just too epic to be contained…

PANTS HAZARD I was running late for school and rushing, so I didn’t realise I hadn’t done my pants up properly. My pants fell down in class, everyone laughed at me, then I tripped while walking away! Oscar, WA UNLUCKY! XBOX NONE My brothers and I got an Xbox One S for Christmas. When our roof was being fixed, the Xbox got soaked! We had a game in the console and couldn’t get it to work. We’d only used the Xbox for six months! Craig, SA HEAPS UNLUCKY! FALCON FAIL I was playing with my LEGO Millennium Falcon before I put it down and left the room. While I was gone, my sister came in and accidentally knocked it. It broke into pieces and took ages to fix! Joshua, Qld…

NEED TO KNOW We know what those clever developers are doing. Take the classic LEGO games and snap on brickified versions of the last two Star Wars episodes. EZ. New LEGO Star Wars game. Right? Nope. The space wizards at TT Games have built this new LEGO monument from the ground up. You can play the episodes in any order you like. Perhaps you want to start out by pitting Luke against his Darth Dad, or really want to take a dip with Jar Jar to Gungan City. You could follow that up with a hyperspace jump to the battle on Starkiller Base. It’s your Star Wars story, so do it your way! Our favourite part is exploring the huge galaxy and travelling by spaceship between the planets. You might…

NEED TO KNOW If you want to know about Yooka-Laylee and the Impossible Lair, shift your gaze to the next page. However, if you want to be the one building an impossible lair, stay right here. Evil Genius 2 is a spy-fi game where you can engage your inner supervillain. Your ultimate evil goal ain’t small. You want global domination, but standing in the middle of your path to victory are the pesky goody-two-shoes from Forces of Justice. The first step in your plans to stop ’em will be building a dream lair. Set up the cover op, then it’s time for our fave bit – setting traps. You’ll need traps because those Justice peeps just don’t respect lair privacy. So rude! Basically, they are going to sneak inside. Bounce…

NEED TO KNOW There are a few 20s coming at us soon. On the football front, there’s FIFA 20 and eFootball PES 2020. On March 20, 2020 we will get a new core Animal Crossing game for the very first time on Switch; Animal Crossing: New Horizons! Most people want to avoid deserted islands, but New Horizons will maroon you on one, instantly. For a fun getaway, natch. This abandoned island has stacks of fun potential. So, get your Minecraft on, slap a tree for wood (or use an axe for better results), and then start building! A simple tent becomes a house, which becomes your own teensy resort. Collect items to build furniture, chuck in paths to neaten everything up, and then pole vault across rivers to explore more.…
