Apparatus, system, and method for effectuating modifications to a virtual space responsive to token detection

摘要

Exemplary implementations may facilitate modifications to characters and/or virtual items within a virtual space, or to the virtual space itself, made responsive to detection of a token. In some implementations, a physical accessory may depict a character in the virtual space. By way of non-limiting example, the physical accessory may include a toy figurine resembling the character. A detectable token (i.e., a physical object) may be removably attached to the physical accessory. According to some implementations, responsive to the physical accessory being detected along with the removably attached token, a modification within the virtual space may be made to the character and/or a virtual item associated with the character. In some implementations, detection of the token alone may effectuate such a modification.

主权项

1. An apparatus configured to be detected by a token reader to effectuate a modification to a virtual space, the apparatus comprising:
a token configured to be detected using a token reader, the token being detectable based on a first signal conveying information associated with the token, the token being a standalone physical object, detection of the token effectuating a modification to one or more attributes of the virtual space that identify a condition of the virtual space, the virtual space being provided by a virtual space platform in communication with the token reader, wherein virtual space content associated with the modification to the one or more attributes of the virtual space that identify the condition of the virtual space is stored at a location other than the token, and wherein the one or more attributes of the virtual space that identify the condition of the virtual space include one or both of laws of nature of the virtual space, or weather depicted in the virtual space.
