CoC starter - Want to run a short game for my D&D players.

Hello, as the title says,

I am a long time DnD 3.5e DM. I have played PF before and tested 5e, dipped into Worlds without numbers, but always wanted to see what Call of Cthulhu is like.

I have downloaded the PDF starter rulebook, but didnt have time to read through it.
Not sure if it comes with a short introduction adventure as well.

What is some general advice for a DM coming from D&D etc. who wants to gets his players into other systems like this? What should I focus on, what are the biggest differences etc?
(Outside of the obvious, you are not a demigod, part)
I am open for all help that makes it easier.

I usually use Roll20 for most of my games.
While I do have Foundry, I couldnt get a server option as of yet to use it + some of my players have prehistoric PCs. ^^

Ok, I am new to the game and Root digital doesn't explain a lot, so I am confused as to why I cant craft the fox card here. Fox is the outcast (I cut that part off) I have a garden to craft from in a fox clearing on the right AND on the left. I control both. I also control 2 bunny clearings. So WHY cant I craft it?

Also, because I am now even more confused: The Fox symbol means that I need a garden in a fox clearing and the costs mean that I have to control 2 bunny clearings correct?

Thanks.
