EFFECTUATING MODIFICATIONS WITHIN AN INSTANCE OF A VIRTUAL SPACE PRESENTED VIA MULTIPLE DISPARATE CLIENT COMPUTING PLATFORMS RESPONSIVE TO DETECTION OF A TOKEN ASSOCIATED WITH A SINGLE CLIENT COMPUTING PLATFORM
First Claim
1. A system configured to effectuate modifications within an instance of a virtual space presented via multiple disparate client computing platforms responsive to detection of a token associated with a single client computing platform, the system comprising:
- one or more processors configured to execute computer program modules, the computer program modules;
a space module configured to implement the instance of the virtual space to determine views of the virtual space, the instance of the virtual space being presented via a plurality of separate and distinct client computing platforms, the plurality of client computing platforms including a first client computing platform;
a token detection module configured to detect tokens based on signals received from token readers associated with individual ones of the plurality of client computing platforms, a given token being a standalone physical object, the tokens including a first token associated with the first client computing platform, the first token being detectable based on a first signal conveying information associated with the first token, the information associated with the first token conveyed by the first signal being devoid of virtual space content; and
a virtual space modification module configured to effectuate a first modification within the instance of the virtual space responsive to detection of the first token, the first modification being observable via multiple ones of the plurality client computing platforms.

Abstract
Exemplary implementations may facilitate effectuating modifications within an instance of a virtual space presented via multiple disparate client computing platforms responsive to detection of a token associated with a single client computing platform. In some implementations, tokens may be detected based on signals received from token readers associated with individual ones of the multiple client computing platforms. A given token may be a standalone physical object. The given token may be detectable based on a signal conveying information associated with the given token. The information associated with the given token conveyed by the signal may be devoid of virtual space content.
