Using the pattern
Secret Scoring Mechanisms are typically added to games with Scores in order to avoid having Predictable Winner and thereby set up for Beat the Leader situations.
The mechanisms are typically design so they can be activated to win a game or automatically are activated when End State Scoring begins.
Consequences
Secret Scoring Mechanisms affect how Scores work in a game by adding Imperfect Information. They can be seen as a form of Secret Goals and provide both Anticipation and Tension to gameplay while making more difficult to have a Predictable Winner. The use of them lessens the importance of Score Tracks since not all points may be shown there (especially if End State Scoring is used).
