Using the pattern

The design of Game Boards

If a Game Board isn't a Score Track in itself it can be augmented with one.

Interface Aspects

Game Boards is an Interface Pattern.

Consequences

Game Boards are often Maps and in that sense can depict Game Worlds. When they are used to keep track of how players move Tokens from one place to another to win, they also work as Score Tracks. When they are used with Dice or Tokens, the latter becomes Non-Diegetic Features in the Game Worlds.

When they are physical game components (as opposed to representations on a computer screen), Game Boards work against Ubiquitous Gameplay since players need to be near them to use them.
