Hexers XL Role-playing Game Board, Vinyl Mat Alternative Compatible with Dungeons and Dragons DND, Pathfinder, RPG, 44 inches on 34 inches with 1 inch Squares and Hexes, Foldable and Dry Erase

Great Product, Just a few hiccups, but worth the money!
Updated!First off, I do plan to revise my review to four or five stars, why? I’ll get to that after some things you should know.The first off is the mold issue you’ll read about? It’s gone. I reached out to the seller the day I bought this and asked them about it. It took them an hour or two to get back to me. They’ve added silica packets to the boxes and started vacuum sealing the boxes. Mine smelled kinda like a new car’s glove box. (I’m actually letting air IN right now)Second, This is what I plan to revise depending on their response. One of the two slats, yes it’s so big it’s in two parts, came scratched on one side and with strange dimpling on the other. Normally not a big deal…but they’re just deep enough to catch marker ink. Thus making it difficult to clean.Third, the actual product review. First. This thing is giant. You can easily have multiple dungeons on it or you can have one mega-dungeon on it.>The material is solid, I tried to fold the thing up once incorrectly? It wouldn’t even let me. It stuck at a right angle.>It’s hinges? I think they might have some type of tape inside because they had some resistance to them.>As I mentioned earlier it has two “slats.” They’re each so big you could easily use one or the other as its own board.>Best part of the two slats? They line up. Per-fect-ly. On both sides. Yeah, they went there. BAM.>I tested the erasability in a corner with three different brands. Slides right off clear. I can see it getting stained after a while, maybe a few years of use? But what board doesn’t?>For bang for your buck? You’re getting four boards in one essentially. Two physical and two too draw on.I’ll update my review to five or four stars depending on the outcome of my damage issue.Edit: Updated my review, while they were not able to replace my damaged slat, the vendor was 100% understanding and refunded more than half of the purchase price.

Nice and Easy to Use But …
I like the idea for this product and I like the actual product. It’s sturdy, lays flat, and the dry erase markers I have write on it nicely and, most importantly, erase easily. However, there are a few things that keep this product from being ‘perfect’ for my TTRPG games.1 – The boards are ‘slippery’ on a wood table.Because the surface is made to write on with dry erase markers, the boards can slide when touched and set on a smooth surface, like a wood tabletop. With several people sitting around the table playing, it’s fairly easy to move the boards, especially if you have both set out, making them easily misaligned (if your map covers both boards. I plan to affix some of those small rubber ‘feet’ to both sides to help keep this from happening. If the board came with them as an option (for those who would like to install them, that would be awesome, imo).2 – The print between the two separated boards is off a bit on mine. That means I cannot align the grids correctly. They’re not far off, but it’s off enough to bug someone with OCD.3 – Related to #1 above – since the surface coating makes these boards a bit slick on some surfaces, it can be difficult to keep the boards, and your map, together if you’re using both boards. It would be cool if there were a means of ‘attaching’ them so the two boards function as one. Maybe some kind of temporary ‘tape’ that could be affixed to the boarder area to keep them from separating when jostled?Overall, the main idea is great and I like this better than the vinyl rollout mats. But I think this needs a bit more work to be a $60 product, to be frank. Overall, I’m still giving this 4 stars because it does what it advertises and I do like it.

D&D Night Essential
This game board was extremely useful. I am a DM and I feel responsible for providing my players with the best possible Dungeons and Dragons experience, with this board I was able to take campaigns to a whole new level. I am in college so I don’t really have money to spend on a lot of miniatures and maps for campaigns, this board brings all that experience in a neat inexpensive form. Using different colors to signify permanent structures and differentiate them from temporary items like props. If players do have miniatures, placing them on this board with a drawn map is as easy as putting bread in a toaster. However, if players or DMs don’t have miniatures, just using a different color dry erase marker from the props and structures on the map and and just erasing them when characters make movements I have found works really well. This specific board labels itself as “XL” which is not to be taken lightly, this board is HUGE. We usually do sessions at my house and we have a fairly large coffee table that we use to set everything up, this board hangs off at the edges slightly. If you don’t have that much room, this board does give you the option to only use half as it is a fold out map split in two, and the instruction manual that comes with specifies that you can cut the board in pieces if you need to. Otherwise, I might suggest to purchase the normal sized one, but definitely go with Hexers over other brands.

This product provides two style options – squares or hexagons.

Genial. Tiene un tamaño bueno y cómo tiene dos partes separadas puedes usar solo una si no necesitas más, o dejar una parte preparada mientras usas la otra para agilizar
