Which games do you know/like from real? Certainly some of these are here and you can start with these.
(Btw, asking a BGA-question in the non-bga part wont bring you as much attention for your question as if you‘d post it in the correct place)

You can look at easy games :

I hoped there would be a list of games with tutorals, but cannot find one

tutorials are a great way to learn new games

Others had the same question. You could find some more ideas here in a post about games that are entry level and simple to learn but can be challenging to master:

Thoun, on the same page with all the games listed you can also choose "more filter" and then search for tutorials!

I just checked: The filtering for complexity doesn't really help, as the complexity is not properly filled for many games.
So here are some of the games with the least rules to study:
6 nimmt:

Lucky Numbers:
https://boardgamearena.com/gamepanel?game=luckynumbers
Solo:
https://boardgamearena.com/gamepanel?game=solo
Similo:
https://boardgamearena.com/gamepanel?game=similo
Bandido:
https://boardgamearena.com/gamepanel?game=bandido
No thanks:
https://boardgamearena.com/gamepanel?game=nothanks
Turn the Tide:
https://boardgamearena.com/gamepanel?game=turnthetide
Vultureculture:
https://boardgamearena.com/gamepanel?ga ... ureculture
For a little more complex games you might use tutorials, as thoun has proposed, or check the link to video descriptions on the page of each game.
You can also look for games which can be played in solo mode:

Note: For solo mode you also have to choose "training mode". Than you can take your time to learn the game an its interface before you start playing it with others.
A lot to discover - enjoy!

I’d probably say Incan Gold.
Simple push your luck game with no possibility of doing the wrong thing and ruining it for others.

Checkers, Connect4, and Santorini (with no powers) are some simple abstract games to start with. Santorini gets a little more complex as you add the various God powers.

Great question! You’ll find several BGA suggestions on this list from last year’s SpielMas festival.
