Game with hand motion control

An apparatus comprising:

• at least one processor configured to control:
• transmitting, by a transmitter, to an electronic device, a signal that encodes an identifier that is unique to the apparatus, indicates a current location of the apparatus and causes display of a message at the electronic device;
• responsive to a confirmation action by the electronic device and when the current location is determined to be within a predetermined area, transmitting control signals to the electronic device to control an application at the electronic device, wherein the electronic device is operable to receive second control signals from a plurality of other apparatuses, and wherein the control signals cause the electronic device to react to given control signals received from the apparatus;
• receiving a second signal from a motion sensor, wherein the second signal indicates at least one motion of the apparatus;
• transforming the second signal to a command, to control activity of an application associated with the electronic device;
• transmitting, by the transmitter, the command to the electronic device;
• receiving, from a receiver, instructions received wirelessly by the receiver from the electronic device;
• and
• responsive to the instructions, providing information to an output of the apparatus.
