acquiring video information through a camera apparatus of a device, during the running of the AR game;

determining a current holding mode of the device, according to the video information; and

displaying prompt information if the current holding mode is inconsistent with a target holding mode, wherein the prompt information is used to instruct the current holding mode of the device to be adjusted.

3 . The method for controlling an AR game according to claim 2 , wherein the acquiring a voice instruction comprises:

acquiring the voice instruction, wherein the voice instruction is used to instruct a target object in the AR game to execute a target action, and the virtual object comprises the target object.

4 . The method for controlling an AR game according to claim 3 , wherein before controlling the virtual object in the AR game according to the game control instruction, the method further comprises:

determining the target object according to the voice instruction, wherein the target object has been displayed in an interface of the AR game before the voice instruction is input.

5 . The method for controlling an AR game according to claim 3 , wherein before controlling the virtual object in the AR game according to the game control instruction, the method further comprises:

determining the target object according to the voice instruction; and

generating and displaying the target object in an interface of the AR game.

6 . The method for controlling an AR game according to claim 5 , wherein the generating and displaying the target object in an interface of the AR game comprises:

determining position information of the target object according to the voice instruction; and

generating and displaying the target object at a position corresponding to the position information in the interface.

7 . The method for controlling an AR game according to claim 6 , wherein an interface trigger control corresponding to the target object is located in a secondary interface of the interface, and the secondary interface is an interface that is invoked and displayed after a specific control is triggered in the interface.

8 . The method for controlling an AR game according to claim 3 , wherein the target object comprises a game prop in an interface of the AR game, and the controlling a virtual object in the AR game according to the game control instruction comprises:

determining a frequency of voice input according to the voice instruction, wherein the frequency of voice input is used to represent an input speed of a target audio in the voice instruction; and

determining, according to the frequency of voice input, a frequency at which the game prop executes the target action.

9 . The method for controlling an AR game according to claim 8 , wherein the target audio comprises an onomatopoeic word corresponding to execution of the target action by the game prop.

10 . The method for controlling an AR game according to claim 3 , wherein the target object comprises a game prop in an interface of the AR game, and the controlling a virtual object in the AR game according to the game control instruction comprises:

determining a volume of voice input according to the voice instruction, wherein the volume of voice input is used to represent a sound intensity of a target audio in the voice instruction; and

determining, according to the volume of voice input, at least one of an area of effect and intensity of the target action executed by the game prop.

11 . The method for controlling an AR game according to claim 2 , wherein the determining a game control instruction according to the voice instruction and a preset instruction mapping relationship comprises:

converting the voice instruction into a text instruction;

determining, from a preset keyword set, a target keyword matching the text instruction; and

determining the game control instruction, according to the target keyword and the preset instruction mapping relationship.

12 . The method for controlling an AR game according to claim 3 , wherein the target object comprises a plurality of game characters in an interface of the AR game, and the controlling a virtual object in the AR game according to the game control instruction comprises:

determining a voice characteristic according to the voice instruction; and

determining, according to the voice characteristic, a target game character of the plurality of game characters that is to be controlled by the voice instruction, so as to control the target game character according to the game control instruction.

13 . A non-transitory computer-readable storage medium storing computer-executable instructions thereon, wherein when a processor executes the computer-executable instructions, the method for controlling an augmented reality (AR) game according to claim 2 is implemented.

14 . An electronic device, comprising:

a processor,

a memory, configured to store a computer program; and

a display, configured to display an augmented reality (AR) game interface processed by the processor;

wherein the computer program, when being executed by the processor, causes the processor to:

acquire a voice instruction during running of an AR game;

determine a game control instruction, according to the voice instruction and a preset instruction mapping relationship;

control a virtual object in the AR game according to the game control instruction, wherein the virtual object is a game element that is superimposed and displayed on an image of a real environment;

acquire video information through a camera apparatus of a device, during the running of the AR game;

determine a current holding mode of the device, according to the video information; and

display prompt information if the current holding mode is inconsistent with a target holding mode, wherein the prompt information is used to instruct the current holding mode of the device to be adjusted.

15 . The electronic device according to claim 14 , wherein the voice instruction is used to instruct a target object in the AR game to execute a target action, and the virtual object comprises the target object.

16 . The electronic device according to claim 15 , wherein before the virtual object in the AR game is controlled according to the game control instruction, the computer program, when being executed by the processor, further causes the processor to:

determine the target object according to the voice instruction, wherein the target object has been displayed in the AR game interface before the voice instruction is input.
