Board Game Arena

We have about 10,000 games played on this, so I think we could make a tutorial instead of having people read the rules. I saw on a different forum that the icons were confusing, maybe a tutorial could fix that. However, I don't think I am qualified* to make a tutorial, so is anyone up to the task?

*I am 3 elo. Maybe we want someone with at least 100 elo

i've never played roughly half of the games I've made tutorials for, so I'd say everyone is qualified *shrug*

Is this the very first game ever to move from Beta Version to "New Game" without a tutorial?

Or is it just a coincidence that I had never found one until now?

Definitely not the first. I would estimate that 40-50 of all new games don't have a tutorial upon release (some don't have a public beta, I think - not sure this one did).

I found it very confusing at first, but with the game rules open in a seperate window, I could get the hang of the game within one play. I don't play any other terraforming game, so it's all very new to me.

It made me appreciate the tutorials even more, though.

It was unfortunate that the summer event overlapped with my vacation. I could not keep up with all the games coming out. =/

But this one is done now!

Thanks for the Tutorial! But I must wait for the German version. My english is not so good.

Well done with the tutorial, Nekonyancer! Only one small thing, I thought the milestone was for 7 of the same color, not necessarily gray?
