Bots, Tales, & Trivia

Pick Your Poison & Your Prize(s)

Calling all inventors, spooky storytellers, and trivia buffs! We've got six ways to win in the month of October.


Our main event is back — The Big, Bad Bot Bash — and we want to know what you've created in your Genesys lab pertaining to bots, automations, and even AI.


Not a mad scientist? Join us in the Trivia Tower community to participate in four different events that promise a wickedly "gourd" time. If you want to win a treat from the Prize Wall, read on to get all the spooktacular details!

The Big, Bad Bot Bash Main Event

Genesys Bot Example Genius Campfire Stories

Contest 1: Enter your Genesys bot:

Contest 2: Tell us a paranormal story:

We want to hear all about your prized creation that you and your team have cooked up leveraging Genesys software or artificial intelligence (AI). Tell us how the project got started, the accomplishments you've made along the way, and why it's so useful. We can't wait to see what you've cooked up in the creation cauldron. 

Working in the lab requires long hours and late nights. We want to hear your favorite story of the unexplained. Do you or someone you know have a first-hand account of the paranormal? Tell us your hair-raising tale. No making things up, because we may test you later. This is not a contest for skeptics.

Trivia Tower Treats

Fangtastic Novel Trivia strikes Oct. 9th-11th. We hope you know the horror section of your bookstore, because we're testing your knowledge of horror books and their authors.

Candy Close-ups zooms in Oct. 16th-18th. We will show you a close-up picture of halloween goodies from around the world. Can you name the treat? It's a truly ir-Reese-istable challenge!

The Dead or AI-live Scrambler generates Oct. 23rd-25th. Can you unscramble words related to the world of artificial intelligence? You'll have a challenging three minutes to beat the machine, or else...

Spooky Sounds plays Oct. 30th-Nov. 1st. You'll click to play a spooky snippet of a Halloween song or movie, then guess where it's from. This challenge is not for the faint of heart, or hearing.
