What happens when a game reward looks successful on the surface, but misses the real goal underneath?

A player logs in more, but are they actually engaging deeper, or just showing up for the reward? A campaign boosts activity, but which activity changed? The one you wanted, or something else entirely? And if one reward works for new players, why assume it means anything for whales?

This is the part people often skip. Rewards are easy to launch, but much harder to understand.

If you can’t clearly see what changed, who changed, and whether it was worth the cost, was it really impact, or just temporary noise?
