Create a meta-story that is a Tutorial.
Knowing that folks will try their best to read the instructions and still miss things, consider (you may already have this in the pipeline for launch) creating a game/story that is a meta-fiction which illustrates how to play fairly directly.
By using a quirky or comedic style, a kind of Hitchhiker's Guide to the Galaxy approach, you could end up with a story that's interesting as well as being entirely self-referential. Perhaps someone awakens to find themselves trapped in the fiction, and has to decide what to do next. before them lie these cards...
Anyhoo!
