Amazon announced a new member to its Echo family, called Echo Buttons, designed to offer physical interaction with other Echo devices, specifically for use in playing family games.
The new devices are small and roughly hockey puck-shaped in size (think a sleeker version of Staples’ easy button, but one that lights up). The Echo Buttons will be able to connect to Echos with a new “Gadget API,” and owners will be able to use them to play games in conjunction with an Alexa device. At its press event today, Amazon showed off the buttons playing games like trivia, where users push the button to answer just like on traditional televised game shows.
The Echo Buttons will sell in two-packs for $20.
