Using virtual assistants for entertainment like playing games and trivia

To while away the hours some seniors play and they can use a virtual assistant like Alexa for entertainment by playing games and trivia. Here are the steps to get started:

1.              Say "Alexa, open games" to browse and select from a variety of games available on Alexa.

2.             If you know the name of the game you want to play, simply say "Alexa, play [name of the game]".

3.             Follow the instructions provided by Alexa to play the game. Many games are interactive, and seniors can play by using their voice commands.

4.             Alexa also has a variety of trivia games that seniors can play to keep their minds active and sharp. Simply say "Alexa, play trivia" or "Alexa, start a trivia game" to get started.

5.             Some popular games that seniors may enjoy include Jeopardy! Escape the Room, and Word Master. These games are easy to play and can be a great way for seniors to pass the time while keeping their minds engaged.

It's important to note that not all games on Alexa are free, and some may require additional purchases or subscriptions. Seniors should also make sure they have a stable internet connection and a compatible device to use for the game.
