[h1]The Tutorial[/h1]
New to the game? If so, we highly recommend that you play the [b]Tutorial Campaign[/b]. If you are an experienced gamer, or are coming to us with a lot of specific card game experience, you're probably thinking, 'How hard can this be?", or you just hate tutorials and don't feel like you need the hand holding. We get it. That's why we broke the Tutorial down into separate quests that teach you the basic concepts and then let you put them into practice as you wish. We wrap that up with an original narrative story that nicely leads right into the first campaign.
If you are used to lots of other card games, an important thing to note is that this is a Player Vs. Environment/Experience game, NOT a Player vs. Player game. That makes the experience very different than the typical digital card game and we have a very different complexity curve as a result. There are a lot of different options and nuances to the game that if you don't understand will hamper your ability to succeed against the forces of Sauron.
Where can you find the tutorial? Just click on the green campaign icon on the Single Player game map.

To select an individual [i]Tutorial Quest[/i] (or any Quest), just click on the Quest icon to the right in the Campaign Information Screen. The first tutorial covers the basics of how to play the game, picking up where the basic prelude tutorial you played when you first started the game left off.

[i]Tutorial Quest 3[/i] covers the most nuanced aspects of the game, but veteran players will tell you that mastering these skills are your keys to victory. We go over attachments, specific keywords and hand size limits.

Finally, we wrap it up with a standard quest in [i]Tutorial Quest 5[/i] for you to try out your new deck with, or to come back at any time. This Quest wraps up the narrative and directly leads into the first full campaign [b]The Shadow's Reach[/b].
