    Sorry for asking this if you have mentioned it before but, in this day
    and
    age, did you try looking on youtube or other platforms to see if
    anyone
    has posted any video tutorials for any of these games you try?

    That's not worth my time. If the game isn't going to teach me, I'm not
    going
    to play. It's just not fun that way.

    I am not a gamer but I suspect that most games don't have a teaching mode, do they?

    Almost all games do. They have an intro to get you used to the gameplay
    before getting into the real game. I haven't seen many games that don't.

    That's good.

    Tutorials are very popular for single player games, and even many of those that don't have tutorials might introduce new mechanics one at a time so the player gets to become familiar slowly with them.
