I only just recently purchased GWT. I haven't played it yet though. Is it safe to learn the game HERE on BGA in Alpha mode, OR could it be confusing since it's digital and may yet have a few bugs? Status of Rules/Tutorial? Suggestions?

I think anybody in the group can confirm that even if It's in alpha the game is 99% finished. I'm mainly working on some UI/UX bugs and improvements.
Only one rule clarification (not in rulebook) is not implemented yet but will be in next patch:
about the auxiliary action reward that should be given before upgrading a station - in the case you move your engine (https://boardgamegeek.com/thread/277243 ... ent-editio).

Digital experience will be different because you have visual helpers (probability of next card, list of cards in deck, extra & missing tasks for objectives...) but will surely help to learn the game.
There is no tutorial yet.

Thanks. I may give it a try when I muster some courage to spend some time/effort/brainpower.
