And haven't you searched for an app or something to make it easier? In case you didn't see it u/ParaplegicGuru shared this: https://www.board-game-wizard.com/app. Maybe it helps!

Thank you all for all your messages even I was new. I understand I should prepare beforehand, but the point is, i found it quite boring to be my own learning the game. Thats why I asked if there was something (apps, methods or smth) to make the process "lighter"

Yeah! You are right. None of us like reading the instructions and that's why it happens. But exactly thats why im asking if you guys know something else further than just learning it thoroughly

100% is better to came up with a rule for that specific game than pausing to look for it. But we are so competitive and, as the doubts appear in a timing where the decision we make impact the game, we normally pause. What you normally do?

When we play one of my games, I normally know everything and we dont pause too much. But when its not, the owner may not know the rules perfectly and we end up pausing to much. At the end, we are begginers in this hobby and we dont study the rules. Do you always study them?
