Tutorials play a crucial role in teaching players the controls, mechanics, and rules of a game, and their design can significantly impact the player's perception of the overall game. The aim of this research is to guide developers and game designers in designing effective tutorials and practice tools by leveraging game elements. The study investigates the interweaving of tutorials into the game and narrative, pacing, subtlety, and the challenges posed by complex game genres. Interviews with developers emphasize the importance of tutorials in growing a game's fan base and remaining relevant in the gaming industry. The research aims to answer the question of how game elements contribute to the player practice experience through tutorials and practice tools. The paper presents strategies, workflow, and effective design techniques for tutorial development, including the use of UX design principles and methods. The thesis concludes with a case study, dissecting the design process of a tutorial stage in a hypothetical game called "The Last Crow," showcasing the application of the research findings in practice.
