Noisy Person Cards - or how to get comfortable in being silly in public

https://www.kickstarter.com/projects/oneshotpodcast/noisy-person-cards

 I heard about it recently on the tome show and if you want a fun gateway game to having fun in making silly voices, this is for you. :)

There's a free deck on the kickstarter, but honestly, I'm backing this. :)

The Tearable RPG

http://www.drivethrurpg.com/product/167521/The-Tearable-RPG

This game has a really original concept.

essentially you tear the sheet to see whether you succeed or fail.

It was produced by Jim McClure (of Talking Tabletop) and they even did a let's play based on the 80's.
