  Wingspan is a beautiful and fun game, but the instructions are incomprehensible. I don't have concrete examples, but I needed to read the entire book twice to have enough context for info at the beginning to make any sense. In a lot of ways, this is because of the thing that makes the game great (deeply interlocked systems) also makes it hard to find a point to insert the read pointer for the explanation.

      I agree, that's a much better way to learn it. I've also had no problem teaching people the game without the manual. Lastly, the "new player" card pack that comes with the game works well to get someone up to speed and competitive quickly (and is an idea other games could afford to learn from).
