How quick are you to understand new game instructions? (self.boardgames)

I swear I'm smart and have pretty ok reading comprehension...but when I pick up a new game I have the hardest time understanding the rules and mechanics by just reading the instructions. Watching videos is helpful but I still really only pick it up while playing the game and going through the motions.

So I'm slowly collecting games that I can't play until I find people who know how to play.

How easily do you pick up new games?

@SpaceNoodle @TicaVerde Man, the instruction manual for One Deck Galaxy was rough. Read it, watched a play through video, read the FAQ and still struggled with that game.
