Your Amazon Echo stays busy throughout the day, from reminding you about important appointments to lulling you to sleep at night, and becoming your TV’s speaker in the living room. But sometimes even Alexa needs a break. Fortunately, there are tons of great games you can play with Amazon’s voice assistant on your Amazon Echo. 

Some of our favorites include games from TV shows such as Deal or No Deal, where you try to select the suitcase with the most (fake) money. Another favorite is Song Quiz, where you pick a music decade, like the ’80s, and try to guess the tune playing based on a snippet.

Here’s a list of nine of the best Alexa games for your Amazon Echo and how to play them.

Are You Smarter Than a 5th Grader?

Just like the TV show, you answer questions to see if you’re smarter than a fifth-grader. It’ll start with a first-grade question, like «the cricket is an insect, true or false?» If you get it right, you’ll move on to a second-grade section and so on until you reach grade five. A fifth-grade question might be something like «In which state did the Salem Witch Trials take place?» 

If you get any question wrong, you automatically lose and have to start over. To get started, say «Alexa, play Are You Smarter Than a 5th Grader.»
