I haven't had a chance to play a game with the new board and terrain, yet. But I put together the new terrain. I love the stickers that turn the clay pots into risers! I didn't notice that before I bought it. I'm really excited to have a second board. I've shown off the game a bunch and now I can set up two games at once!
Really love the necromolds game. It’s like playing Warhammer 40 K, but much more casual and fun. When you’re finished, you’re ready for another battle. great original mechanics like molding your own Units, and squashing them with your ring when you kill them. Nice to have this battle board to play on a bigger board
An absolutely brilliant introduction to wargaming! The moulding and squishing the units is immensely satisfying, and (depending on which version of the rules you use) it's simple enough for a 7 year old to pick up. The variability in how you set it up and play it really good for replayability- "well next time I'm going to just spawn *only Mud Mumps*".
The lore book and the comics within kept my child quiet for probably longer than the game itself as well.
Was fun, enjoyed the tactile and tactical elements. Only complaint is the insectomite punches above its volume. It's a little slow, but it rolls so many dice (generating lots of gems) AND wins ties in melee. Perhaps it can be kited with grave ghouls, but it is a pain to deal with. IMO the winner is usually the player with more insectomites.
Got the game for my 5 year old and she loves it. Even just playing with the molds is a blast for her. Little kids will need a little help with it but older kids like my nephews quickly understood the rules.
This game is absolutely amazing, it scratches an itch in my brain that no other table top game has scratched. It's simple yet so much fun to play, I can't wait to get more molds to try new army combos.
Great game, detailed instructions, and easily accessible. Everything is well made and the game is fun with the base kit alone, but can't wait to get more bonus content and maps!
Fantastic skirmish game that skips the part I find boring, building and painting and just focuses on pure fun! Simple enough for kids but still fun game design for someone like me who plays plenty of actual mini games. Look forward to getting and playing the expansions!
WORTH IT.
Its easy to learn, fun, incredible choice of clay providing kids the fun to squish their foes while providing a familiar dynamic and a easier learning curve because; Clay is rad.
If you want a game to bridge the gap to tabletop games to your little one and have fun while doing so, pick up Necromolds.
what’s better than rolling dice and smooshing bad guys?
Great fun with my 9 year old son. Luckily the book comes with standard instructions of course/ but also basic and advanced. I was very happy to get basic instructions and I didn’t have to figure that aspect out! We were able to start playing right away without learning too much complicated stuff and have a blast, after a couple of weeks we are now expanding and learning the standard set of rules. lots of fun!
As always thank you for this incredible game. I needed a third set of command dice so my son and I could fight big boss monsters. Now I need the 4 player upgrades when there available!
This is my introduction to war games. It's incredibly easy to understand, isn't expensive to get all the minions and expansions. And I love the tactile feel of molding and squishing.
In the meantime, you can substitute components (for example, coins for extra gems) and purchase Command Dice sets separately.
Can I use other brands of clay?
Yes. Many popular brands of soft dough-like clay are compatible with Necromolds™ and are widely available and inexpensive. 3oz to 4oz per player is recommended.
The only thing that matters for balance is that each player begins the game with the same volume of clay.

Can I dry and paint the monster miniatures?
Yes! You can mold and air dry your favorite monsters before painting them. It is best to air dry several copies at once on a baking rack, as the clay may crack when shrinking.
It's a great way to younger players to get into the hobby of miniature painting!
