Today we went to the hall to watch a show about Duffy goes in to the games. When we went into the hall there were three people they introduce themselves. Then they started the show. The show was all about a boy name Duffy and his cousin. His cousin always play video games so Duffy got bored and started playing by himself. Then Duffy put on his nana's glasses and then he started dancing. Then he got suck in to the video game. I learn that the game that Duffy's cousin was playing was invented by Duffy's nana. My favourite part was when the minstral try to knock out Duffy's tour. Minstral is a character in the game that try to knock out the blocks.
