"Alexa, open Historic Tacoma Trivia!"
Yes, the popular smart speaker found in many homes can now be used to explore the history of Tacoma's architectural legacy. Distributed by Amazon, the Alexa devices (Echo, Dot, etc.) are now a way for users to play a trivia game that will test their knowledge of historic buildings in the City of Destiny.
The free trivia game for the Alexa is available HERE. (Alexa users can also go to their Alexa smartphone app and search for "Historic Tacoma Trivia", or enable the skill here.)
The game can be played by 1 to 4 players. It's a fun game to share with friends and family; your out-of-town visitors will enjoy it too. The game also includes additional bits of trivia that will provide preservationists and local history buffs useful "did you know's" for their next bar challenge.
If you enjoy the game, please consider making a small donation to Historic Tacoma. Also, if you are shopping on Amazon, you can shop at smile.amazon.com/ch/20-8811455 and Amazon Smile will donate to Historic Tacoma.
