Meet Corey Tutt, founder of DeadlyScience and 2020 NSW Young Australian of the Year! Check out www.deadlyscience.icu for more info! K-Z: Hi Corey! What is DeadlyScience, and why did you start the project? C: DeadlyScience connects over 100 schools with the magic of science. ‘Deadly’ means ‘cool’ for Indigenous people, so we share how cool science is by supplying resources like books and telescopes! In 2018, I was talking to high school kids about science and was blown away by how excited they were. When I was in school, science was never really considered an option for my people. I wanted to change that, and started sending books to remote schools to help engage mob in science. We have sent a staggering 6500 books and over 200 telescopes to schools across…

THE MANTICORE This hybrid creature is part lion (body), bat (wings), and scorpion (tail). The Manticore is a fearless warrior and has been around for at least a thousand years – if not more! Her story is so legendary that she is even an important character in the Quests of Yore game. WARNING: In her modern form, Corey the Manticore is able to blend into New Mushroomton society. Corey may appear harmless, but if you aggravate her, she will enter full Manticore mode pretty quickly! DRAGONS Dragons are known as fierce, larger-than-life beasts, but in New Mushroomton, dragons are also house pets. Think of a snake with legs... and wings... and the energy of a dog! Blazey is the Lightfoot family’s pet. WARNING: Blazey is very friendly! Check out her…

The only thing better than lots of loot... is heaps and stacks and mountains of loot! Love loot? Love Minecraft? Minecraft Dungeons is totes your jam. At its cool core, Minecraft Dungeons is all about smashing mobs and vacuuming up sweet gear. The more you score, the more fun you can have. There’s armour that would make Iron Man proud, a wicked wizard outfit that would impress Doctor Strange with its epic magical mana, and archery gear that will basically turn you into Hawkeye. OK, Minecraft Dungeons obvs isn’t a Marvel game, but you can form your own Avengers-esque team. Go on an adventure alone for the love of loot, or face tougher fights and shinier gear with co-op. Many minds make short work of squirreled-away secrets that promise even…

CHASING ’CHIEVOS Earn trophies by running away! As Shelly, run from the hippo in Jungle Hideout. As Ruby, sprint away from the rhino in Bizarre Bazaar. Do the rhino-run for Finbar too.

SPRINGING TRAPS There’s a trio of trophies all about traps. Run into traps 10 times to score the ‘Need More Practice’ trophy, but note how the different traps work – you need that info…

How did you find out about the Madame Tussauds Sydney competition? Z: My mum found the competition online and thought it would be a perfect fit for me. To enter, I had to send in my best celebrity outfit and pose, and explain why I should be a Madame Tussauds Mini Studio Assistant.

1. MARIO KART 9 Mario Kart Tour has helped fill the void while we wait for a new Mario Kart (especially the recent multiplayer feature) but we’re hanging out for Mario Kart 9! It’s definitely way overdue – Mario Kart 8 was released in May 2014 and Mario Kart 8 Deluxe three years later! 2. SUPER MARIO ODYSSEY 2 Super Mario Odyssey is one of our fave games ever.

In a game called Bridge Constructor: Ultimate Edition, the fact that the big problem is a bridge probably isn’t a huge surprise. However, you’ve gotta build it before you can try to get over it. Other platforms, like Android, iOS, PS4, Xbox One and PC have already constructed Bridge Constructor, but the Ultimate Edition on Switch has all the sweet DLC built in. Let’s fly over the setup real quick! Basically, there’s a big gap that needs bridging. Those ridges need a ridgy-didge bridge to help transport a couple weighty cars, hefty trucks and bulky trains from one point to another. Things start off easy, but if bridges are shaky, vehicles will end up in the deep lakey. To be totes honest, that’s the real fun of Bridge Constructor. You…

Brief Battles is a game about butts. It’s not a beat-’em-up. It’s a butt-’em-up. You will be busy kicking butts while trying to protect your own butt from danger. Brief Battles is mostly about getting your butt into some magical, superpowered undies. How cheeky! It’s like Super Smash Bros. Ultimate, but instead of including individually superpowered characters, you’ll need to chase down pairs of individually superpowered dacks. Armed with the right jocks, you’ll be ready to rock. Attack the other players with your magical undies. Without enchanted undies, you can still drop from above. It isn’t silent, but it is deadly. However, that’s a lot trickier without enchanted tighty-whities that help you fight-y. Toss ice, lob fire, chuck poison, drop into brief boxer-chasing challenges solo, or make an overpowered team…

U OH NO My dad, my sister and I were playing UNO one night after dinner. They both made me laugh so hard, I wet my pants. It was so embarrassing! Ollie, NSW UNLUCKY! QUICK, SAND! I was ready to jump off a swing, but didn’t realise how high I was until I jumped. Let’s just say that when I landed, I had lots of sand in my mouth. Ick! Ashtyn, WA SO UNLUCKY! MUD YOU LAUGH  I was at camp with my class and we were on a bush walk. The ground was muddy and as we were walking, I slipped and fell face first into a big muddy puddle!

HEALTH NEWS Adults in South Australia can now be paid to donate their poo! BiomeBank is Australia’s first public stool bank, which stores and processes healthy poo in a lab in Thebarton. The stool is used for important medical research, and ‘faecal microbiota transplantation’ (FMT). The FMT treatment helps with chronic bowel disorders and can be traced to the 4th century in China!

There’s a chance PS4 and PC players have already said ‘good knight’ to Knights and Bikes. Now, this beloved indie adventure has finally made its way to Switch. First timer? Lance it on the go. Repeat knight? Go on, give it another swing! Knights and Bikes spins the yarn of stowaway Nessa and her soon-to-be-bestie Demelza. What do new besties do on a sleepy island? Chase down a bit of legendary buried treasure, natch! Even though you do have a treasure map, this island is a huge getaway, so it can be tricky at times to find the way.
