Sure, the best way to learn is someone explaining the game to you live, but thats not always available.
What do you do? Read the manual, watch videos or something else? Any specific creator to recommend?
I usually read the rulebook, then find a video (ideally “Watch It Played”, Rodney is a treasure) to confirm my understanding of what I read and/or clarify anything I didn’t. This is usually sufficient. Another cheeky way to learn a game is to play it on BoardGameArena where the system won’t allow you to play the game wrong.
I do the same and if anything does not make sense to me in the flow and the game is not new, i‘ll ask chatgpt for clarifications
Upvote for Rodney <3 (and the rest of the tips as well)
For me its Watching some gameplay Videos and then I Cheat, to avoid frustration, and try it out myself
Read the setup and basic rules, start playing and read up specifics as they become relevant.
Depends on the type of game of course, but its usually fun even if we end up playing it kinda wrong in the beginning
