This game doesn´t need a tutorial. Controls are standard fare, and skill descriptions /item descriptions /unit hover descriptions explain the rest. But some of the skill descriptions could do with a makeover, a little more detail.

You have to be really dumb not to understand most stuff after an hours worth of trial and error even if you are a n00b, which is the same time tutorials usually take.

Tutorials is just a  waste of time. But maybe you´re one of those guys that need a tutorial to get up from bed, or to make a sandwhich?

If he had only asked nicely...

Well everyone will claim how brilliant they are and how they don't need a tutorial. For many people that may be true, but for the game and community as a whole a tutorial would have been a nice touch.

Sadly there is no tutorial, but take a look at the manual and play some single player and you will pick it up quickly.

Indeed. I never do the tutorial, in games that have them, simply because i grew up without them. Seems this is making you smarter later in life? Since i understand stuff quicker and better than people that need handholding to do anything.

No Tutorial FTW

 It really feel so, can only feel superior to those swearing kids with attention disroders.  Last time time i tried retro gaming i couldnt believe how hard and complex the games were compare to pre digested stuff we get today, and that on a single floppy disk. Demi god interface is a wonder of conviviality and simplicity. 

A tutorial is completely UNneccessary in this game and here's why:

Everyone knows what HP and Mana are and do.
Everyone knows how to look at tooltips and select abilities and items.
Everyone knows how to click their mouse buttons, so a few right-clicks and left-clicks tell you exactly what they do.
Everyone knows how to work the scroll wheel on their mouse.
Everyone knows how to use their keyboard and the first buttons they ALWAYS try are WASD. Also, the abilities are tagged with what key you use them with.
Everyone knows to play around with the single player portion of a game before you go multiplayer. It's just common sense. And even one single player game will provide you with the basics of what the Crystal things do, what's in your Citadel, what's in the item shop and how to place items, what's the Artifact shop.
Everyone knows how to get into the Options of a game to look at Keybindings.

The rest is just discovering the right builds for your gameplay for each Demigod and that is totally up to the player. A tutorial would not teach you which is right or wrong because there is no right or wrong build.

In actuality you've already been provided with a very good tutorial in Demigod. It's called Single Player Skirmish mode. Have fun.

Wait, I had a tutorial for Prison somewhere...

Personaly I prefer Cataract though because it has much more strategic depth:

rofl

i just discovered specialized favor items after like 20 games 

they should include some kind of tutorial. 

as for reading the manual lets be honest when was the last time a game came with a manual that was useful?  Homeworld last I recall so I have been ignoring manuals for years now.  I would love for games to have useful manuals again.
