Abstract
We show how proximity-sensing technology can be integrated into computer game design to provide richer game experiences in social settings. To explore the theme of proximity-triggered interaction, we have constructed Pirates! -- a multi-player, wireless computer game for handheld computers, played throughout a physical environment. The players' physical locations in the environment trigger game events.
