 Due to its definition, [[Winning by Ending Gameplay]] is incompatible with [[Unwinnable Games]] and [[Winner determined after Gameplay Ends]]. However, if [[Speedending]] is possible in the latter the combination of these can result in players [[Winning by Ending Gameplay]] (if they judged the game state correctly and managed to end the game instance quickly enough).

+The design of [[Winning by Ending Gameplay]] is in practice designed a goal which ends gameplay and declares the player who reached the goal the winner. Unlike [[Winner determined after Gameplay Ends]], [[Winning by Ending Gameplay]] can be applied both to [[Multiplayer Games]] and [[Single-Player Games]].
 One design consideration that needs to be taken for the pattern is however if several players can, or should be allowed to, end gameplay simultaneously. [[Scores]] can be used as [[Tiebreakers]] if this is the case and [[Tied Results]] are unwanted.
 == Consequences ==
-[[Winning by Ending Gameplay]] causes [[Game Over]] for players and in many cases [[Tension]] when this is close to occuring. The pattern can be used to let players have a chance of ending [[Time Limited Game Instances]] prematurely by winning, but can also be used to designate [[Tied Results]] or a [[Game System Player]] to win if no player has won when time has run out.
