Sock Puppets is an award-winning RPG about a failing children's television series. Make real, actual puppets and use them to ruin a perfectly good puppet show. 👤3-6 Players⏲️40 - 80 Minutes✂️ Crafting🤝 GM-less In Sock Puppets, you'll act as both puppets and their troubled puppeteers, each with baggage they're taking onto the show. Someone is trying to get a vape sponsorship; someone is pushing their cult; someone wants to make their cat famous. It's a mess, basically. The game is a 38 page zine filled with awkward relationships, messy personal agendas, goofy characters, episode ideas and a handful of rules. It's designed to be picked up and played with no work in advance – well, except for getting a bunch of puppet-making materials. But you could all just take off a sock and shove a hand in there if you're feeling lazy and gross. Sock Puppets is lovingly designed in the style of petty squabbling games like Ghost Court or Fiasco. It's a playful, crafty, fast-paced game that will get all your friends talking in wretched little puppet voices almost immediately. But don't take my word for it. Here's Ian Howard, designer behind 5-Star Match and One Breath Left, with an accolade so glowing that I'm almost too shy to put it here: "Kurt is one of my favorite people and designers, and Sock Puppets is the Kurtiest game imaginable. That is to say: it's whimsical, funny, artful, elegant, insightful, and suffused with loving reverence for all the quirks and foibles that make us human."
