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.

There is provided a method and system for a wireless stylus device with interchangeable tips and an eraser. The method comprises, detecting a tip connected to the stylus device from a plurality of tips, detecting a movement of the stylus device, determine a code representing a feature of an application of an interactive device based on the tip and the movement, and transmitting the code to an interactive device. The wireless stylus device may include an accelerometer, which may detect an inversion of the wireless stylus device and enable an erasing feature in the application. The wireless stylus device may provide the tip and the movement to the interactive device through a speaker using an audio code, including a frequency or series of sounds.
