Teach The Game

Q: How do I know the Teach The Game output is good?

The skill verifies itself against its own quality checks: Goal stated in the first three sentences of the script; The script survives being read aloud in under 5 minutes at talking pace; (~700 words max); Nothing in the skip list is needed to take the first two turns.

🔵 Stable🕐 updated 2026-10-06 ✅ 5/5 🔷 SkillSpec L3 pm-tabletop

Build a 5-minute teach script for any board game so the table starts playing instead of listening — theme first, goal second, a turn third, exceptions only when they come up. Use when someone says 'how do I explain Catan/Wingspan/this game', 'teaching my family a game tonight', 'my rules explanations kill the mood', or 'make a teach script'. Produces a spoken-word teach script with a first-turn walkthrough and a what-to-skip list.

What to give it

▸The game — and edition/expansions in play, if any

▸Who's at the table — count, ages, gaming experience, attention spans

▸Has the teacher played it before, or is — this a learn-and-teach?

▸Time pressure — casual evening or a tight slot?

✅ The bar it holds itself to

Every skill in this library self-verifies — these are this skill's own quality checks, straight from its definition.

✓Goal stated in the first three sentences of the script

✓The script survives being read aloud in under 5 minutes at talking pace

✓(~700 words max)

✓Nothing in the skip list is needed to take the first two turns

✓Uncertain rules are flagged for rulebook verification, never bluffed

✓The script asks the teacher to put components in players' hands early —

✓hands busy, attention held

⚠️ What it refuses to do

Do not follow the rulebook's chapter order — it's a reference document,

not a teach

Do not front-load exceptions and edge cases; that's what the skip list is for

Do not invent or misstate rules for a named game — flag uncertainty; a

table can wait ten seconds for the rulebook, not recover from a wrong teach
