Games Master - Fun Friday
Today we got visited by games master which is a group of people that play games. But because of Covid-19 unfortunately we couldn't meet all the games mater people. But we got to meet one person who is a girl her gaming name is soy sauce. The game we played was about a boy named T and his problems with his family. T doesn't get along with his biological dad Dave. But he also doesn't get along with his step dad Bryan, and his step sister Becca. T also wants to spend time with his mum Maeraea but sadly she keeps on ignoring him. T also has a best friend Jack who helps him with his problems but sometimes can't take it. In the game we had 4 lives and we had to find out the password for the game which we found out was "Every Child Has Hopes And Dreams. We also had to try get bonus points in the game and we got 16 bonus points. At the end we received cards and badges from the game.
