This was perfect for my target audience: someone who has learned the rules and played a dozen games but is unsure whether the GoMagic website is actually more helpful that merely watching the YouTube videos. The way quizzes are created and used is so very well done. Worth it. I wish my company's required HR training website was as well designed.

A great compilation of the mistakes that beginners repeat, and I was kinda annoyed at the fact that I have to explain these to every beginner. Not anymore cause, Gooooooo Magic is here, and I just tell people to complete this.

My only criticism is that there weren't more mistakes discussed. Wait, there's a 2.0?!

Great tips. Wish the coins weren’t awarded on first tries. Sometimes things aren’t so clear, or even misclicks can cause lost potential for coins.

Such an amazing course! I started applying a few things here and there and I can see the difference! I'll keep reviewing/retaking this course over and over, as well as every other course I take.

Very nice beginner and novice course. You can easily fall of some of the slow moves and thus fall behind in the game. Quite helpful to review as principles are well exemplified.

Wooof... I thought I was going to breeze through this course just based off the title. I guess I'm exactly the target audience though since I only scored 71%. Definitely one I'll be coming back to again!
