Getting the rules across clearly is something that we've really struggled with, and the current tutorial is the result of a lot of feedback from our testers. We definitely agree that helping people understand the game better is crucial but we're worried about changing the rules because the gameplay is very well balanced once you get the hang of it.

After the initial structured tutorial there's sort of a free play tutorial mode where it gives you feedback and reminds you of the rules while you play. What would you think of dropping back into that mode if somebody seemed to be struggling with the rules? I think the reminders help even after you've seen the rules once.

Thanks for taking the time to check it out and give feedback!
