Many immersive games have been created based on successful TV shows and movies, but Westworld: The Maze introduces players to an entirely new kind of experience on Amazon Alexa.
Westworld is a sci-fi western series with artificially intelligent robots and fittingly, the game offers an innovative way for fans to dive deep into the fictional world. The voice-based story experience involves three choose-your-own-adventure levels, with more than 60 storylines and 400 unique game choices. In all, Westworld: The Maze offers more than two hours of unique gameplay, although the game takes about just 20 minutes to be completed.
As well as being able to offer a wealth of information and carry out a variety of simple tasks, voice assistants are becoming highly involved in gaming experiences. While some voice assistants take on the role of facilitators, others serve as allies that have the potential to enhance gameplay—either way, voice assistants are engaging guides for next-gen gaming experiences.
