Tutorials: learn how to play board games with BGA

[Kurrun]

Good stuff. This is really useful and I love it

Some games play vastly differently with variants enabled, is it possible to construct tutorials about how those variants are played, and labeled as such?

I see your tutorial guide suggest just sticking with the basic game format for the baginner, but I believe it should be useful to also explain some of the mechanics for other parts?

If I were to just do a basics, do I add those parts which I believe make the game more fun at the end, or am I just forced to ignore them?

I really love this new feature.

May it be possible to create tutorials even in other languages than english? For natives it would be easier to create the tutorial in their native language and translate it after.

best regards

I would like to add some links here:

If you are interested in tutorial making, you might join the group of tutorial makers: https://boardgamearena.com/group?id=10196677
People there are also interested in volunteers for testing tutorials or proofreeders for the basic english version (for not every tutorial maker is an english native).

Here you can find a list of all tutorials, even in progress: https://boardgamearena.com/tutoriallist ... n=allgames So you can choose alpha or beta tutorials to test and vote / give feedback. And you can also check if there is already a tutorial in progress before you start your own one.

For there are many ideas and problems to be discussed about tutorials, I suggested to create a new forum for tutorials, just like the forums for translations and developers. You can vote for this suggestion here: https://boardgamearena.com/bug?id=53463

This is a great an very useful feature that I've already used a few times recently to learn new games, so thank you. It would be great if in future there was functionality to actually play through the rest of the tutorial game/ against a computer after the instructions so you have a chance to practice and properly figure out the mechanics before you are playing with other people. I personally get quite anxious when playing a new game with others the first time especially if I still don't feel confident in the gameplay or rules yet and it would help a lot to get a chance to practice in a low stakes setting first. Especially on more complex games.
