	[[Mutual Goals]] are typically used to provide players with [[Shared Rewards]] and/or [[Shared Penalties]] for some activity, and if [[Agents]] shared those goals create [[Teams]]. Another reason is to make [[Algorithmic Agents]] into [[Companions]] by giving them [[Mutual Goals]] with a player. A third, diegetic or narrative, reason is that the goals of some in a [[Factions\|Faction]] logically make them [[Mutual Goals]] for the [[Factions\|Faction]] as a whole. The goal of [[Team Elimination]] for another team is a [[Mutual Goals\|Mutual Goal]] for members of that other team, and [[Beat the Leader]] is a [[Mutual Goals\|Mutual Goal]] for all players of a game instance except the (perceived) leader. However, providing players with [[Mutual Goals]] can be a way to temper what would otherwise be a harsh [[Competition]]. A special case of [[Mutual Goals]] is those that players together decide upon, i.e. the ones that are [[Player-Defined Goals]]; these can occur spontaneously within game instances whenever players can identify some form of [[Shared Rewards]] (or [[Shared Penalties]] they want to avoid).

[[Mutual Goals]] which players are forced to chose but they still have possibilities to affect the specifics of, that is they are [[Player-Defined Goals]] bound by rules, can require or demand that the players engage in [[Negotiation]].

	[[Mutual Goals]] can be modified in several different ways. [[Individual Penalties]] or [[Individual Rewards]] can be added, as can [[Asymmetric Resource Distribution]] in general, to make the incentives for players to reach the [[Mutual Goals]] differ.

			Members of teams in [[:Category:Sports\|Sports]] such as [[Ice Hockey]] and [[Soccer]] have the [[Mutual Goals]] of beating the other team.

	[[Mutual Goals]]		Explicit [[Mutual Goals]] are found in [[:Category:Co-Op Games\|Co-Op Games]]. Examples of such games are [[Forbidden Island]], [[Ghost Stories]], the [[Left 4 Dead series]], [[Legendary: A Marvel Deck Building Game]], [[Pandemic]], and [[Yggdrasil]].
