Personally, I hate in-game tutorials, as it's disruptive to the flow of the game but I'm not a beginner. What about the instructions? It's not 'in-game', but does that count? Anyone that's read my instructions won't need a tutorial, but there's also in-game help as a reminder.

I think it's an option you present. Most beginners would choose yes, most seasoned pros would choose no. Everyone is happy.
Instructions on a page not on screen currently are not as effective as a printed manual or an in-game tutorial. That said, your written instructions on your game page are exceptional Garry, I just think a lot of players might not bother to read them and assume the game will guide them (the modern gamer approach).
