Penny Arcade - PATV - First 15 – Super Exploding Zoo
Gabe and Tycho play a game for 15 minutes and then judge it accordingly. This week they play Super Exploding Zoo. You can watch the full length version of this episode here.
I would argue that the game tells you exactly what you need to know. There's a few levels where you just collect your buddies, and then comes the one that introduces abilities. I think the assumption is that, by now, the player is conditioned to collect all available buddies first thing; and then explore/experiment- especially since was only one type on screen.
But! The important part is that things were figured out without needing to consult the internet. That's always a plus.

Yea as soon as I saw the croc level I was like.. well go get the other croc that is just sitting there idle you fools.
I'd rather watch them beat their head against the wall for fifteen minutes trying to figure out that they just need to pick up the other crocodile than watch them sit through a mind-numbing slide show of tutorial pop ups for fifteen minutes. So there's that.
