You have to guess the song title and artist. If you succeed, points will be awarded. It lets you compete, one-on-one, with other people across the world. It asks for your name and the place you live in at the very beginning. Once you answer a question, it compares your score with the score of your competitor by narrating its name.

Get Me Up
Humans can be lazy at times. It’s just that some of us have an innate ability to get off the mattress easily whereas, the others struggle at it. This is the reason why this Alexa Skill was developed. It will make you laugh or whatever but it won’t stop at any cost until you’re up. You can say no in case you are not persuaded after which it’ll get more intense and annoying.
Mastermind
Now, this is a bit robotic in nature, but also a must-have Alexa Skill. It’s less of a companion and more of a servant. You want to text someone, call your mom, send your location to FBI, turn on the Wi-Fi, etc. A command is all you need, and you’ll be served like a ruler. It’s loaded up with too many features to be counted and we can’t even write them all down here.
Baby Groot
‘I am Groot.’ is all that Baby Groot says. It may look weird to some of those that use the device that is extremely advanced in the matter of technology – to respond with the same three illogical words – every time, to your whatever command. But this Alexa Skill was not developed while keeping in mind the logic but the emotions. If you’ve watched GOTG, it can make you smile every single time you hear the words, and that’s invaluable.
Escape the Room
Beware, this can be quite intense. Nonetheless, it’s fun anyway. You’re present in the lobby and asked to get in any one of the four rooms. Then begins the real struggle. You are supposed to find a way out of the room by using the hints narrated by Alexa. It’s one of the most addictive games yet worthy of your time.
