The Tutorial is a gamemode featured on Seaside Skirmish and allows new players to learn the basic mechanics of the game. Following version 1.80, new players are forced to complete the tutorial before playing online. Once finished, the gamemode is no longer available.
Play[]
The Tutorial can be accessed by checking the "Tutorial" checkbox next to the Play Now button in the game-client, and then clicking on the Play Now button itself. Players can also play the tutorial by going in the options and there will be a tab saying Play Tutorial.
In the Tutorial, objectives appears at the top of the screen with instructions on how to move, shot and things alike. Red bonfires will mark the places to move to. Once a player reaches a bonfire, they are given their next objective, which is either to reach the next bonfire, capture a flag or destroy a vehicle.

Trivia[]
- The wooden targets, weak tanks and red bonfires are exclusive objects of the Tutorial and cannot be found anywhere else. However, the red bonfires closely resemble the National Festive Flare Widget that was released during the Football Fiesta.
