Using the pattern

Secret Goals are typically introduced in Multiplayer Games to introduce Player Unpredictability and Tension, and by doing so make it more difficult to perceive a Predictable Winner. This in turn makes it less likely that players will try to Beat the Leader or begin Surrendering due to feeling that they cannot win or have meaningful gameplay any longer.
