See Bomb Bag.

Apparently bad, parasitic designs are the result when I try to be flavorful.

What's the secret?

Um... I honestly don't know how to respond to that.

The secret is that this land can be transformed. But you need to use a Bomb Bag or similar to get at it.

Yes, Alex is right. But like I said, it's not a great idea.

Mildly hidden secrets is most certainly a thing we should find a way to represent though.

The issue is that if I see the word "Secret", I'd expect something that I'd keep to myself that my opponent does not know. Double-faced cards, given the fact that you have to announce and reveal them during draft, seem to be the opposite of a secret. Not to mention the fact that double-faced cards must be unique to each other (one front must have the same back at all times).

If you want to do secrets, then you can do something with face-down cards from your hand or library. Something like:

"Exile the top card of your library face-down. You may look at it and cast it."

But that's essentially just drawing a card. Alternatively, you can do something with 2/2s and some sort of morph/manifest variant, but that doesn't seem right to me either.
