Drunk Quest Print And Play
While it's now sadly defunct, the was an excellent source of recommendations, and many of the best games are still available. There's also more than a couple of BGG geeklists that have a PnP focus - here's a few that I've tagged over the years: • • • • • • • Hopefully that'll give you a bit of choice. Of course, the trick then is to actually put the game together.

Fortunately, the BGG Wiki has. Edit: It's possibly worth noting that a lot of board game Kickstarters offer PnP prototypes to get people interested.
I backed The Agents after trying out the PnP version, and have just done the same for. A personal tip on testing card games like this - buy a set of really nice deck protectors (I like Dragon Skins), sleeve some ordinary playing cards in them for a bit of weight, then print out the PnP cards on ordinary paper, cut them out, and stick them in front of the cards in the protectors. You don't need to worry about exact cuts, round corners or any of that guff. Even if the cards have back designs that are necessary for gameplay, you can just print them out the backs separately and stick them in behind the cards. They might not look as nice as a properly printed set, but for playtesting on the cheap, it rocks. I've only played it a couple of times so far, so this is preliminary thoughts: In terms of actual gameplay, it's not a heavy game. I'd definitely class it as a filler.
That said, there's enough strategy to keep it interesting, and I could see that once you get more familiar with the cards and how they work together, you could plan some nifty combos as you scan through your deck. It's reasonably well balanced, and the two decks are different enough that you do have to somewhat adjust your tactics depending on which side you choose. Its real strength, though, as pretty much everyone points out, is its portability. Being able to play it entirely in hand makes it an ideal game for situations where you couldn't otherwise play - I could see it becoming very popular at cons while people are standing in lines, for example. So, basically, just as a game it's nothing revolutionary - fun, but not going to blow anyone's mind, and not going to scratch your deck-dueling itch in the same way that Netrunner or Magic are.
On the other hand, it does bring a neat new mechanic to the table, in that you don't need the table. I'm sure many of the ideas that are used (deck as hitpoints, full deck knowledge, card combos, etc) have been done before, but they've been put together in a way that is (as far as I know) a new mechanic, and for that I reckon they deserve funding. Of course, now that this idea is out there, it's sure to spawn a rash of clones and improvements. I'm sure it won't be long before someone comes up with a Magic variant that can be played in hand, and the big publishers won't miss an opportunity to sell a CCG that can be played in queues. So if you like the 'in-hand' concept, but aren't keen on the actual game, you probably won't have too long to wait to have more options. Really, though, your best bet would be to just print it out and try it yourself. The PnP files are available on the Kickstarter page, and like I said, they work very well in sleeves.
Give it a go and see if it's for you. There's entire guilds on BoardGameGeek dedicated to PnP games • lists of what people are making • There are of various types there's way too many PnPs to even list the great ones. Just off the top.
What we would need to help oyu is what you're looking for? Are you looking for pure card games? Maybe download which is currently on Kickstarter. Has a kickstarter that finished but the game is available for download. Is my list of PnP files.
I haven't made a lot of them but there are some interesting games to be had. UTOPIA eNGINE is a great one player game but it requires pretty much no construction.
Just print out two sheets of paper, grab a pencil and two dice and you're good to go. That's the kind of info we'll need to suggest a game. How many players? How much work are you trying to do? Pure Cards or do you want to build other stuff? Ink-heavy or light?
