# value

The score earned by the player.

## Declaration

```swift
var value: Int64 { get set }
```

## Discussion

Discussion You can use any algorithm you want to calculate scores in your game. Your game must set the value property before reporting a score, otherwise an error is returned. The value provided by a score object is interpreted by Game Center only when formatted for display. You determine how your scores are formatted when you define the leaderboard in App Store Connect.
