WiR Ep. 3: The Free Skill! (George Buckenham & Andrew Marks)

Voice Originals by Sensible Object

In the third episode of our Voice Originals podcast, we're looking further at When in Rome: a travel trivia board game that works with your smart speaker. One of the (many) unique aspects of making a board game that uses an Alexa skill is the opportunity to create free elements that offer a taster of the game. This week, we're looking at the free daily skill – a travel question asked by a local each day, that anyone with an Alexa can answer! It sounds simple, but how does it hold up as an experience all by itself? And how does a daily skill fit into people's day-to-day lives? These are just some of the questions that George Buckenham, our Game Designer for When in Rome, and Andrew Marks, our Growth Marketing Manager, explore in this episode.
