Dot to Dot - the daily 5min Alexa demo show episodes
- DTD617 Audio Rebus
Today's skill is a great combination of sound effects and word puzzles brought together in what can only be described as audio Madlibs.
10 min - DTD616 Musical Instruments Quiz
Actually called 'Guess the name : Musical Instruments Quiz' in the skill store, this one's for everyone who wants to know the difference between a balalaika, a bandelé and a banjo.
9 min - DTD616 Assassin's Creed® Odyssey Spartan
Launched with simply "Spartan", I've no idea what today's skill is about. Is it a film?? Anyway, Patrick Steggle ([email protected]) is back to bring us this great demo - although I don't think either of us are any the wiser as a result. Your demos please to [email protected]
7 min - DTD615 Solo Movie Quiz
Have you seen 'Solo: A Star Wars Story'? I haven't, and neither has Patrick Steggle ([email protected]) but that's nooooo kind of reason not to demo this groovy skill all about the latest instalment in the biggest ever film franchise the galaxy has ever known.
6 min - DTD614 Blueprints
A new contributor today, David Ward ([email protected]), brings us a brilliant break-down of what the A-lady's versatile Blueprints feature is all about. Not yet available in the UK (shame!), I hope it is where you are.
10 min - DTD613 Spelling Game and Spell the Word
Today Patrick Steggle ([email protected]) brings us a nice spelling game by Magoosh called 'Spelling Game' and I demo its pair; found by searching for 'Magoosh Spelling Game for Kids' in the UK skill store and then invoked with 'Spell the Word'.
7 min - DTD612 Storyflow
Today we have another nice interactive story skill aimed at younger children of all ages. It asks for access to your Amazon account to get your firstname and email address and then doesn't appear to use them - no idea why…
7 min - DTD611 Ghost Game
Why this game is so verbose is unclear and not a little dismaying - a bit like seeing a ghost I suppose. Probably best to play it with a friend if you have one to hand that isn't aversed to a little spectral spelling action.
9 min - DTD610 Vocabulary Builder and Vocabulary Master
He's back. Today Patrick Steggle ([email protected]) brings us two very worthy wordy skills. Give 'em a listen and both build your vocab and master a larger lexicon with ease/facility/alacrity/adroitness/adeptness.
6 min - DTD609 CBeebies
A firm favourite of very small British children, this skill brings all the fun of CBeebies to the A-lady (well, perhaps not the pictures).
