[[Negotiation]] and [[Player-Decided Distributions]] can be used to let players have a say in how the [[Rewards]] are distributed, and making the [[Rewards]] into [[Shared Resources]] can postpone such discussions until latter.

	Several patterns work against players having [[Shared Rewards]]. [[Conflicts]] and [[Excluding Goals]] among those with the [[Shared Rewards]] may interfere with their [[Cooperation]] or wish to share [[Rewards]] with the others. [[Individual Rewards]] are of course incompatible with [[Shared Rewards]] concerning the same [[Rewards\|Reward]] but the availability of [[Individual Rewards]] can also lessen the wish to strive for [[Shared Rewards]]. Some [[Altruistic Actions]] may somewhat surprisingly work against [[Shared Rewards]] since they can allow for players for forsake their part of the [[Rewards]]. [[Tiebreakers]] can be used to modify games that otherwise would allow [[Shared Rewards]] for [[Tied Results]].		Several patterns work against players having [[Shared Rewards]].

	Having [[Shared Rewards]] can form [[Mutual Goals]] between players, and is likely to cause [[Cooperation]] between them. It can also be the basis for [[Uncommitted Alliances]] or [[Teams]].

	As [[Rewards]] given to several different players, [[Shared Rewards]] can serve to create a sense of [[Togetherness]] between them. This can also have [[Balancing Effects]] ~~effects~~ if the distribution by the system or players give the ~~most~~ best [[Rewards]] to the weakest players. However, if the [[Rewards]] are not easy to split evenly, they may cause [[Social Dilemmas]] and some players may need to take on [[Social Roles]] handling this.

	''~~The one-sentence "definition" that should be in italics~~.''		''Forced sharing of rewards between players.''

	~~This pattern~~ is a ~~still~~ a ~~stub~~.		One part of the gameplay in most games is receiving rewards. When a reward needs to be split between more than one player, that reward becomes a [[Shared Rewards\|Shared Reward]].

	=== Examples ===		=== Examples ===
	[[Left 4 Dead series]]		Winning is a [[Shared Rewards\|Shared Reward]] in [[:Category:Co-Op Games\|Co-Op Games]] such as [[Dead of Winter]], the [[Left 4 Dead series]], and [[Space Alert]]. Groups of player characters in [[:Category:Roleplaying Games\|Roleplaying Games]] such as [[Dungeons & Dragons]] and [[GURPS]] often together defeat enemies, and then together need to share the rewards given for doing so. [[Shared Rewards]] can be said to be given to groups exploring instances in [[World of Warcraft]] since they have to divide loot they receive, and only those in an instance can receive parts.

			In [[Carcassonne]] one possible way to gain points is to finish building a town but all players that have the same claim to the town receive the same amount of points.
