ANGE’S ODYSSEY I battled the Ruined Dragon in Super Mario Odyssey for weeks on Switch! Dodging electricity attacks while also removing pins in the dragon’s crown is challenging. You need to time your moves well, and timing isn't my strongest skill. As frustrating as it was, the Ruined Dragon is a cool boss, and different to every other boss in the Mario universe! JOHNNY'S ENDERGAME Minecraft's Ender Dragon was my recent big boss; it took weeks to figure out. I had to make Diamond Armour and a Diamond Sword, plus a bow with a lot of arrows! I needed so many Eyes of Ender to find and activate the Portal to get to the Dragon. When I defeated the Ender Dragon, I was happy that I got a ton of…

AS A MAGICIAN, I FIND THAT PEOPLE ARE OFTEN SURPRISED… By the amount of practise that goes into magic. There's a lot of perfecting little things, filming and redoing.

In Real Magic, I talk about performing with my best friend, Lucas, in the past. I met him through magic, and we became best buddies and did a magic show together. WHEN IT COMES TO ONLINE CONTENT… People underestimate the work that goes into videos and posting content every day! People see videos and don't realise it's my job! MY FAVOURITE TRICK IN THE BOOK IS… So silly, but it…

Scoring admission to this sus intergalactic theme park in Sonic Colours: Ultimate is a little too EZ. Hm. No wonder Tails thinks he and Sonic should hightail it outta there – until the peak-pace pair get a whiff of the wonderful Wisps that Doctor Eggman has capped and trapped. Now the only way to sprint is forward, sideways, then upside down through epic loops. Sonic Colours: Ultimate is the ultimate colourful expression of the sweetest Sonic stuff.

CHOCCOLI Here’s a simple but effective idea – coat broccoli in melted chocolate. You may need help melting chocolate, but once it’s done, put the broccoli pieces on lollipop sticks. Leave the treats to set in the fridge, then serve ‘em to friends and family. ON A ROLL For this trick, you need a toilet paper roll and a can of hairspray! Spray down the loose edge of the toilet paper to stick it down. Your victim will spin the toilet paper roll again and again, but won’t find the loose edge. Evil genius. DREAM SCREAM Blow up two or three balloons – not too much as you don’t want them to be too big. Sneak into a sibling’s room and take their pillow out of the pillow case. Place…

Y’know, to keep things fair…

RUN BEFORE YOU WALK There’s an old saying about having to learn to walk before we can run; essentially, learn the basics before you try anything advanced.
