Fragging Unicorns Games just launched a new Misspent Youth book on Kickstarter. With the new book, we are taking the game in the direction of invitation – inviting traditional role players, and those with no RPG experience at all, to ease into a narrative RPG and offering rebellious catharsis at the same time!
www.kickstarter.com
If you never played Misspent Youth before, it's a tabletop RPG about friendship, standing up to bullies, and changing the world. The game is for 4 to 6 people, one of whom plays The Authority, the force that's making the world a crappy place to live. The others all play Youthful Offenders (YOs), the punks who can redeem the future from the pack of douches trying to frag it up. It uses a simple 2D6 dice mechanic a bit like craps.
This book focuses on inclusion and invitation. Sometimes it takes new gamers a bit to get comfortable with narrative gaming, so we're removing the most common roadblocks to imagination, streamlining rules to prevent indecision from slowing down the action, and innovating tools to get everyone having fun fast. It's like quickstart rules for narrative rebellion, except there's nothing halfway, cheap, or missing about these quickstart rules. They get everyone into roleplaying revolution seamlessly with maximum joy.
For those that already love Misspent Youth, there are streamlined rules, new options for selling out (and redemption!), new settings to explore, and new Authorities to dismantle.
For those unfamiliar with Misspent Youth, check out nerd superstar Wil Wheaton and crew playing Misspent Youth:

We hope you dig our latest Misspent Youth release and back us on Kickstarter. We've got more RPG goodness coming, too, including more from our miniature skirmish game Gangs of the Undercity, a cyberpunk/fantasy RPG called Subversion, and the Fragging Unicorns card game.
Thanks!
