Tutorial suggestions

Post by Viper_0478 »

Good day to you all

Since I did not see a post regarding the tutorial, I'll create a thread with some suggestions to improve the official tutorial for the game
  1. Make it interactive. According to the general suggestions for tutorials, you should let the player take the actions. This is VERY important for this game, because some actions are not very intuitive for the BGA implementation (Deliver is particularly tricky to understand)
  2. Use the opponent's turn to explain the bonus action on the wagons (you could make it load a passenger on your Engine, for example, and explain the bonus the opponent gets
  3. Merge the two introductory steps, as they seem to be better together
  4. List "Take" as the fourth action. This is backed up by the official manual for the game (it lists four actions). It helps clear the iconography for the cards (as "A" means take any of the FOUR actions)
  5. As a suggestion, which is related to the I18N of the tutorial, action initials (used for the iconography of the cards) are not the same letters as in english. This could be a minor issue, but I think it's worth mentioning
Those are my suggestions to improve it. Thank you VERY much to the Author of the tutorial! I hope this helps. Feel free to discuss or add any other thing I might have missed.

I LOVE this game and I hope many people get to play it :D
