1. A system for interactive theme park devices comprising:
- a theme park device operably connected to a reader and a controller and operable with a plurality of tokens;
a token having a tag, wherein said token is visually indistinguishable from the other tokens within the plurality of tokens, wherein the tag has stored thereon predetermined identification data selected from a plurality of predetermined theme park related character identities;
wherein said tag is adapted to transmit a signal having predetermined identification data to said reader, wherein said reader is adapted to send the predetermined identification data to the controller and the controller activates the theme park device in response to the predetermined identification data, wherein the response is determined by the predetermined theme park related character identity;
wherein different character identity related responses correspond to different predetermined theme park related character identities; and
wherein the character identity is revealed, for the first time, to a person carrying the token by the predetermined response of the theme park device.

Abstract
A method and system for providing enhanced interactivity and immersion in a theme park environment. The system uses a token having a tag that is able to communicate with a reader that is associated with a theme park device. The tag communicates to the reader identification data that correlates to the theme of the theme park and the theme park device. The theme park device will act or behave in response to the identification data.
