Simple, pretty games: the charm of not needing an hour-long tutorial
A simple game teaches the first action while you play. Instead of memorizing a list of systems, you find a tool, try it and understand the result in the same place.
Try the beginning
Check whether buttons have clear names, whether the game explains a mistake and whether you can close the tutorial and come back to it later. A reversible action helps you learn without fear of ruining your progress.
Play one action at a time
