A global positioning system (GPS)-based method for playing an electronic game is disclosed. The method is implemented using a game apparatus that includes a portable electronic device having a GPS receiver. The method includes obtaining location information of the portable electronic device from a satellite signal received through the GPS receiver, and generating a virtual item on the basis of the location information. The virtual item is used by a user to enhance play of the electronic game using the portable electronic device. A GPS-based game apparatus, and a computer program product including a computer-readable storage medium that stores a game program for causing the GPS-based game apparatus to execute steps of the GPS-based method are also disclosed.
