Gaming option: friendly "open hand" coaching

Post by Rukus McUallas »

In games without hidden knowledge (e.g. hand cards), it's quite easy to play a teaching game, where one person can discuss potential moves with a person learning a game. For example: In Azul a "teacher" can see the available options and explain to the "learner" what options they have and what certain moves would do.

I think it would be nice to have an option, where people can voluntarily reveal their hand etc. in a friendly game. This would allow another player to teach a game more easily. On the one hand explain, why playing a certain card would be good or bad in a specific situation. On the other show what options the teacher has available, and why they chose one over the others.

I understand, that this would have to be done for each game seperately if implemented as an option. There's a number of games, and it would take time. and it might not be doable for all the games. However, I think it might be a nice addition.

Thinking one step further, such a feature could be used on streams or for videos discussing strategies and tactics beyond the plain teaching.

I've accomplished this in the past by having the beginning player stream on Discord, and I watch their stream and commentate. If you're teaching them, you'd probably want to be on at least an audio call anyways.
