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
