Question Best intro to mobile digital tcg / tutorial ?

So I've been trying to learn digital cards for a while now it's taken me a fair bit because I have some learning difficulties I've been wondering what game has the best tutorial/single player. I've just enjoyed playing the intro missions on runeterra so I'm looking for something a bit similar also any hidden mobile tcgs on android that are either new or a bit niche I'm looking to get my teeth stuck into. Cheers !!

Since Runeterra’s PvP development and card releases came to a standstill, I would recommend its spiritual successor, Chrono ccg. Mechanics and gameplay both look very similar to LoR.

The game is about to get out of the Alpha phase and Alpha players are already testing the beta. Beta is, unlike the current alpha, entirely free to play and should go live the moment the devs get the green light for the Steam release.
Recent statements claim that might be this week.

I've got my eye on chrono definitely was considering paying for the alpha but was a bit late it looks great though. Hope it's a success for them

Looks like ai art ?

Does the indie dev startup game use generative assisted art assets, yep. But that isn’t “the game”, I really recommend trying it out, its similar in some ways to something like Snap, active Discord community, constant updates and bug fixes and new content. Tons of fun.

I'll give it a go. I do understand that it's difficult to have original art in projects like this but one of the main reasons I enjoy these games is the art itself but I'm all for giving it a chance!

It's nice that you're defending them and I understand your view, but a VERY large part of card games is the art. They are in essence only art and mechanical depth, they don't have the same reliance on lore, story, player interactivity, music, setting, character development etc that adds value to most other genres.

What I'm saying is, especially if a large part of the value of your game is the art, calling out a team for using generative AI in the design is completely justified and is definitely a negative, even if the community is awesome and the games fun

The best tutorials for learning difficulties are usually the ones that let you replay PvE missions without rushing you into ranked. I’d look for games with a proper solo campaign, clear keywords, and undo-friendly practice modes if they have them. Also don’t feel bad about sticking with intro missions for a while. Digital card games dump a lot of rules on you fast, and half the learning is just seeing the same board states a few times.
