The fun part is where you figure out how to convert the noise to LED flashy flashy. There are all sorts of ways to do that and one or another website can give examples.

Keep in mind that many of the RNG/REG circuits are aimed at making cryptographically secure randomness... so there's some fancy stuff going on to minimize bias or make the signal cleaner for use in a computer. You just want to make a couple LEDs look like simulated firelight.

You may be able to use the noise directly. You may need to stuff some transistors in there to drive the LEDS. You may need some capacitors to mess with timing. Get out the soldering iron and see what works.
