“I am Thomas, Eater of Worlds!” (Source: YouTube) So what kept Skyrim popular all those years? What dragged players, new and old, inexperienced and veteran alike back into Tamriel, back into Skyrim time and time again? The answer is simple. While that is still cool, it is not nearly as cool than if we would be able to actually run Skyrim on an Alexa. It is merely a text-based adventure game. (Yep, you read that correctly.) During E3 2018, Bethesda revealed that Skyrim would be coming to Amazon’s Alexa in the form of a “Very Special Edition.” However, Skyrim on Amazon Alexa is not as full-fledged as you may believe. Skyrim has seen releases on a multitude of different consoles, ranging from the Nintendo Switch, to the Amazon Alexa. So much so, that it has continued to be re-released… over… and over… for the last nine years. Originally released for PC, Xbox 360, and PS3 back in 2011, the game saw massive success and popularity.


The Elder Scrolls V: Skyrim, often referred to just as “Skyrim,” is widely considered to be one of the most successful video games ever created.
