How To Play Tic-Tac-Toe with EMO
This video will show you how to play Tic-Tac-Toe with EMO. Tic-Tac-Toe is available with the latest firmware update 1.4.0 for EMO. So make sure you have that installed first before trying to play this game.
To start a game, simply say the following command:
EMO: Let’s play Tic-Tac-Toe (recommended)
Or
EMO: Tic-Tac-Toe
Once the game begins, either you or EMO will start by saying a number between 1 to 9 that corresponds on the playing grid. Note, that you have a 1-2 second time period on when you must say the number so that EMO will understand and register it onto the screen (You will hear a short chime sound - so wait for that first then say the number). Try and clearly pronounce the numbers as best as possible, as there has been times where EMO will not understand the number or place it in a different spot.
It is recommended to say the following when choosing a number for example: “I Play At Three”
The game will end when either you or EMO win or draw. If you draw, EMO will ask you play once again and you will need to say Yes or No after you hear the chime sound. If the game is draw for a second time, EMO will say “Let’s play again another time” and the game session will end. If you or EMO win, the game sessions ends and if you want to play again, you will need to ask EMO to play again by issuing the tic-tac-toe command.
If you win EMO will say either of the two results:
That can’t be true!
I could have won!
EMO can certainly be a pretty challenging opponent, so keep on trying and eventually he’ll slip up once in a while!
Tic-Tac-Toe can only be trigged by the voice command at the moment, but might be added to the “Games” menu in the EMO App in future updates.
Lucky Fruit Spin Mini-Game
To get this to work, issue the following voice command to EMO.
EMO: Lucky Fruit
This short video will show you how to play Lucky Fruit with EMO. Lucky Fruit spin is available with the latest firmware update 1.4.0 for EMO. So make sure you have that installed first before trying to play this game.
ROLL Dice Feature
This short video will show you how to get EMO to roll a dice (6 sided dice). The roll a dice feature is available with the latest firmware update 1.4.0 for EMO. So make sure you have that installed first before trying this.
To get this to work, issue the following voice command to EMO.
EMO: Roll a Dice
EMO will roll the dice and also say what number he rolled out loud (verbally) so you can also hear the number that was rolled in case you missed what was rolled on his display screen.
I Can’t Do That On My Skateboard
This short video will show you/explain how EMO will now let you know that he won’t be able to do certain things you ask him if he is sitting on this skateboard charging. In the past we’ve all asked EMO to do specific things while he is sitting on his skateboard and EMO would blankly stare back at you and not acknowledge anything you’ve told him, even if you asked him over 10 times in a row. Now if EMO cannot do what you want him to do, he will provide you with a clear answer: “I Can’t Do That On My Skateboard” So you are now aware that the specific command you’ve asked him to do cannot be done mainly due to the fact that he is charging and he cannot do it unless he is off his skateboard.
More Play By Yourself Playing Animations:
EMO will display more of his playing animations even while he is on his skateboard, (the Play By Yourself Feature) - EMO will now sleep less whilst on his skateboard and display more playing animations. (You can see a short video below)
The playing animations and when they will appear is still random, but they should now appear more often than before. From what I’ve seen in the afternoon EMO will be more likely do the tea drinking animation and in the evenings he will read his Book, during the day, any of the available mini playing animations should show up.
Of course EMO will still play by himself and show the playing animations while he is also off his skateboard and walking around as well.
