Can We Make Better Tutorials for Complex Games?

Applies to games of all sorts, from fighting games to investing in the stock market.

The wilingness to learn how the system works is directly proportional to the investement of the player. If a game requires 30 min of tutorial to get it going, many will drop of as the learning requirment exceds the time invested so far. 

A good product will delay learning requirement until the user is more invested.

Tutorials of products where you have to click or tap certain areas to advance are quite innefective. The game may be advancing but the user does not learn anything. 

A better approach is to give users challanges. Teach some systems but let the user fill in the gaps. These small achivements that reward the user & incentivising further exploration.
