Strategy

Zombie Charm is essentially an upgrade effect for  Bones, allowing each to not only heal the player, but also act as an  Instant Familiar that spawns a  Familiar. As such, targeting your Bones to areas of the board that have many undiscovered cells are a great place to deploy your new Familiars, potentially opening up a new avenue to safely solve the board. Items which Reveal cells, like  Slingshot,  Rabbit Foot, or  Sturdy Bow, are all great for safely opening a cell to place your familiars deep into uncharted territory

A notable synergy with Zombie Charm is with the  Zombie Paw. By creating normal Familiars, Zombie Charm directly feeds into Zombie Paw's effect of spawning more familiars as they die.

Masteries that specifically specialize in Familiars or Bones, such as the  Commander or the  Undertaker, will get the most use out of Zombie Charm.

Changing the familiars into Strong Familiars is a significant improvement, allowing one Bone placed deep into the board to clear out multiple monsters, readily opening up the space.

Extending the effect to killed Strangers is also a nice addition, as a mastery like  Barbarian will be able to gain many strong familiars this way.
