Managing objectives associated with a virtual space based on characters made accessible responsive to corresponding tokens being detected

A system configured to manage objectives within a virtual space based on characters made accessible responsive to corresponding tokens being detected, the system comprising:

• one or more processors configured to execute computer program modules, the computer program modules comprising:
• a space module configured to implement the virtual space to determine views of the virtual space;
• a token detection module configured to detect tokens based on signals received from one or more token readers, a given token being a standalone physical object, the tokens including a first token associated with a first character and a second token associated with a second character, the first token being detectable based on a first signal conveying information associated with the first token, the second token being detectable based on a second signal conveying information associated with the second token, the first character being accessible in the virtual space responsive to the first token being detected and the second character being accessible in the virtual space responsive to the second token being detected;
• and
• an objectives management module configured to manage objectives associated with the virtual space, a given objective being a purpose or goal that efforts or actions within the virtual space are intended to attain or accomplish, the objectives including a first objective and a second objective, the first objective being effectuated in the virtual space responsive to the first token being detected, the second objective being effectuated in the virtual space responsive to the second token being detected, wherein virtual space content associated with the objectives associated with the virtual space is stored at a location other than one or more the tokens.
