ARISE: SIMPLE STORY Nobody knows what happens when you die, but this game explores that idea in a calming and thought-provoking way. The goal is to come to peace with some of the stuff that happened in your life so you can transcend to the other side. It’s an eerie kind of story and even a bit sad. But the graphics are stunning, and the puzzle-platforming gameplay looks tight. If you like games that do away with action and instead focus on creating a sense of wonder, this could be right up your alley. WATTAM This is the new game from the quirky Japanese developer who created the Katamari Damacy series. And somehow, it’s even quirkier! You find yourself in a bright and cheerful world filled with many bizarre creatures,…

Did you witness the end of the world? If you’re still catching up, then you may not have heard that Season X of Fortnite ended with a massive explosion and the entire island being sucked into a black hole. Then the internet went quiet for two whole days. No one could play Fortnite, none of the social feeds worked, the website was down, and you couldn’t find out anything. The black hole had destroyed everything! It was so spooky. When Fortnite returned, it wasn’t with Season 11, but something altogether different. Called Chapter 2 Season 1, it began with the introduction of an entirely new island. That’s right, we final got the new Fortnite map we had been craving.

This year competitors used the roof of the Institute of Contemporary Art as their diving board above Boston Harbour. VOLCANO BOARDING The brainchild of Australian tour guide Darryn Webb, volcano boarding began in 2005 as a sledding experience that has evolved into stand-up boards. Every year thousands of thrill seekers travel to Cerro Negro volcano in Nicaragua to try it out. Apart from eating ash if they stack it, volcano boarders risk riding molten lava if the volcano goes off. Cerro Negro last erupted in 1999 - for the twentieth time. SKY SURFING…

One day not too long ago (on the last day of year five) we had to talk about all this leadership mumbo jumbo. Anyway, the principal was talking about responsibility when I felt a fart coming. Most of my farts are silent so I let it go, but it turned out to be a ripper fart and the principal paused just as I let it rip. Everyone started to laugh and shout ewwww! Even the principal laughed. I tried to blame it on someone next to me but it was too late. I was the only one sitting in the middle of the room. It was sooooooo bad and shameful. Matt Last year a friend came over to my house. We had a play date and I told him to…
