A recently granted patent (Publication Number: US11826660B1) discloses a collectable object reader game system designed to read multiple types of information identifiers. The system includes a housing with a single reading area where collectable objects, each equipped with integrated circuit tags transmitting type information identifiers, can be placed serially to form a collection. An antenna subsystem in the housing receives the type information identifiers, which are then read by a tag reader and processed by an information processor. The system also features an interface for a smart device to interact with the collected objects, allowing for game adjustments during play.

Furthermore, the patent details a method for playing the collectable object reader game, emphasizing the stacking of collectable objects at the single reading area without regard to their orientation. Players can use a smart device to communicate and record the type information identifiers associated with the collectable objects placed on the housing's surface region. The method allows for multiple players to participate, stacking objects sequentially to transmit further type information identifiers to the smart device for recording and making game adjustments, enhancing the interactive gameplay experience.
