I’m looking for a good simple multiplayer card game tutorial.
Can anyone suggest any?
I’m a beginner so the more basic the better.

That might be hard to find. You’d be better off finding a simple multiplayer tutorial, as well as a simple card game tutorial, and combine what you learn from both together.

That’s a good idea. Thanks.
No problem, good luck!
Thanks! Do you have any suggested tutorials?
Well, if your going to do a standard playing cards type game, you could use something like this to get you heading in the right direction:
and for multiplayer, you need to decide between things like Photon networking, or Unity Networking, or another networking provider, perhaps even Google Play Game Services multiplayer features…

If you wouldn’t mind using a service like Gamesparks for your backend (I use it for my games and heartily recommend it), they have a multiplayer card tutorial…

Also, if you’re a beginner, a multiplayer card game should not be your first project.
Make pong first.

Unity has a good tutorials section. If you’re just starting out, Interface & Essentials is the place to go first.
You may also be interested in CCG Kit if it fits in your budget. (I mentioned this also in another thread you started earlier. I’m not affiliated with the developer; I just thought I’d point out its existence.) It’s a “Complete Project” asset, which means it’s in theory a complete multiplayer card game that you can build and play immediately. It looks like it also comes with well documented source code that you can dig into to learn how it works.
Sometimes it’s worthwhile to jump into the deep end. It can be hard to motivate yourself to make Pong if what you’re really fired up to make is a card game. Just be mentally prepared to scrap your first couple attempts and write them off as prototypes and learning experiences.
Might not be what your looking for but it might help.
Beat us to it! Just wanted to add this link which may also be of some use to OP or anyone else who comes across this thread - https://docs.gamesparks.com/getting-started/creating-a-game/unity-setup.html
Hopefully I’m not breaking any rules by necro posting, but in case someone else finds this thread by search, the gamesparks link has changed to this:

The link to the Hearthstone example is unchanged:
