Claim 39:
40. A location based game system comprising:
a head-mounted device operable to provide a location based game in a semi-visible environment in which a user of said head-mounted device can simultaneously view at least a portion of a real-world environment around said user as well as virtual indicia for said location based game, said virtual indicia comprising at least one of a virtual game character and a virtual interactive object;
processing circuitry in said head-mounted device;
memory in said head-mounted device storing computer programming capable of execution by said processing circuitry;
a first locating device in said head-mounted device for providing a first control signal for said location based game;
a second locating device in said head-mounted device for providing a second control signal for said location based game; and
a display provided on said head-mounted device, wherein said head-mounted device is a portable device and said processing circuitry is operable to execute said computer programming to cause said display to display said location based game based on a location, direction, and pitch associated, at least in part, with said first control signal and said second control signal, said display of said location based game comprising display of said virtual indicia in a manner that blocks part of, but not all of, said user's view of said real-world environment around said user,
wherein said location based game is operable to be played on a physical playfield that correlates to a virtual playfield and said processing circuitry is operable to execute said computer programming to set one or more physical boundaries for said physical playfield that correlate to one or more virtual location boundaries of said virtual playfield for said location based game, and
wherein said processing circuitry is operable to execute said computer programming to allow said user of said head-mounted device to manually set dimensions for said physical playfield for said location based game.
