ABOUT US

Hi I am Paul one of the owners of Lich Games I have spent most of my Life dreaming of running a game store, when I stopped wanting to be a dinosaur due to "not being possible".

I have spent most of my life in the Board game community previously being a demonstrator for the company Esdevium(which changed to Asmodee) and considering I have never left Norfolk for any personal time I have travelled around the UK going to many conventions to work and also local stores to demonstrate games.

I have also spent most of my life living in wymondham or Spooner Row. As someone who relies on public transport and used to drive a motorbike I know first hand how annoying,and expensive, it can be to have to travel all the way to Norwich for a couple games of Yu-Gi-OH or a DND session; So I thought I would like a nice friendly Local Game store in Wymondham so why wouldn't others?

Here we are present day with a store that the local community has accepted and which is coming and growing an amazing community of friendly gamers! I am always happy to talk to anyone about anything and if you have a game system I have never heard of I am always happy to learn about it and even get a game in whenever possible!

Finally I am a huge animal nut and love all and every creature which is fantastic as here at Ayton House there has been a crow couple who has been living here for around 10 years and since April 2025 I have been slowly befriending them and feeding them so if you ever come down on a quiet day or early in the morning you may see me sat outside feeding my two crows Billy and Bones!

Hey I am Joe one of the owners of Lich Games probably one of the unluckiest people to play games in the world so much so I now have a Loss counter on our wall, if you ever come in and beat me in a game you can add a mark to the counter, Even though I have spent so many years learning the ins and outs of Warhammer in general the dice always betray me!

I have also spent a long time playing MTG, mainly commander format now, along with DM'ing a 6 year long DND campaign and, like Paul, I have also spent most of my time travelling to Norwich for my games which hurts the pockets especially after you spend so much money on the hobby then having to spend money just on parking alone now just hurts.

I to have spent a lot of my life in Wymondham and Norfolk, having a brief stint as an outdoor instructor in Scotland until covid hit and I came back down to Wymondham where I now live. I am always happy to Lore dump and just talk in general about anything warhammer MTG DND and just Table Top Games in general and just as Paul said am always happy for a game, or most likely loss, of anything whenever I get a chance!

The store is designed to be a community hub for all types of games to be played in everything from dobble to big titan 40k fights. We are a welcoming store that does not charge for table space you can just turn up and play!

However on weekends and events days we do suggest messaging us in advanced or booking a table on the site just in case we are at max capacity avoid disappointment

We stock a small selection of games at current, Warhammer, MTG, Yu-Gi-Oh, Painting/building accessories and DND accessories (so many cool dice, dicebags, dice jails, roll mats/trays custom storage for your character sheets etc made by Black Wolf Creative a local to Wymondham who is a leather worker Dice maker and MDF genius)

Allthough we only stock a small amount we do have access to order specific things in for people and if we ever do we will knock 10% off the RRP so if you are after anything just pop in and have a chat or shoot us a message/email

We want to run events for any and all games/systems but at present we are running them for games we are confident in (Warhammmer 40k and AOS 1000 point, Spearhead, MTG, Gaslands) along with running days once a week for different systems, currently we run DND(all TTRPG's welcome) Tuesday nights and want to start running weekly events for Warhammer 40k, AOS, Killteam, Spearhead, Oldworld, Gaslands and many more but we just have to figure out how without us needing to live at the store 24/7.

We have a wide variety of cold drinks, snacks, tea and coffee available day to day with some events having Circus Head come down to pitch up a portable coffee house!

We have ample parking in front and behind the shop that is all free for visitors of Lich games and Ayton house.

Yes, as the main entrance has a few steps to get to, there is a ramp along the side of the shop to allow access to the building for anyone who requires a ramp. We also accessable toilets on the property for those who require them.

It is absolutely free! On a day to day bases we do not charge anything for table space. All we ask is if you are planning to run a game here that would require space to please send us an email with how much space and what time you require so we can reserve you a spot!
