Description

The Game of Life is a cellular automaton devised by Dr John Conway in 1970. The game is a zero-player game, meaning that its evolution is determined by its initial state. One interacts with the Game of Life by creating an initial configuration and observing how it evolves.

The rules of Life:
1. Any live cell with fewer than two live neighbours dies, as if by needs caused by underpopulation.
2. Any live cell with more than three live neighbours dies, as if by overcrowding.
3. Any live cell with two or three live neighbours lives, unchanged, to the next generation.
4. Any dead cell with exactly three live neighbours cells will come to life.

Features:
☆ Change the colors
☆ Change simulation speed
☆ Change the size of the world
☆ Create or modify the initial configuration
☆ Create random patterns
☆ Insert alive cells while running the simulation
☆ Select the edge wrapping behavior
☆ Color gradient with cell age
☆ More than 850 predefined patterns!
☆ Select your favorite patterns
☆ Search patterns
☆ Save and delete your own patterns
☆ Rule edition

4 ★ The app is very well made, and I found it very intuitive to customize all the options, but I wish there was a way to set the dimensions of the play area manually, instead of just up and down arrows. I want to try running the simulation in a square and it doesn't seem to be an option. If I somehow missed this in the settings please let me know.

5 ★ I was actually kinda suprised when i saw there were not ads, I really like conway's game of life so im really happpy they didnt put and ads. great gamish thing 11/10

5 ★ Lovely, not a single flaw. And has more features than one can ask for.

5 ★ I love this app not only because there is no ads, but also the design itself is simple and easy to use even in a small phone! Well done developer.

5 ★ Still great after all of these years, but so much easier to enjoy now on a finger swiping device rather than a clicking keyboard placing each cell individually. Thank you!

5 ★ it's conway's game of life alright! it does exactly what it says on the tin and more, the presets are a great feature and the ability to customise most things about the simulation is just the cherry on top!

4 ★ Fun to experiement and all. But you need a way to teach the player how each one works and maybe some preset creations and the ability to make presets.

5 ★ This is a clean, simple app to demonstrate Conway"s game of Life. It is very well stocked with examples! The examples are a very good way to show basic operation and then development to enormous examples. The examples are often named using a popular convention. As for any app developments, I should like copy and paste. However, I do appreciate that this might be a quite a lot of work, so I would be prepared to pay for this.

4 ★ Works as intended, follow the rules of the game of life correctly. I just have a few suggestions. 1 when I zoom into the grid, I would like the app to remember all the tiles outside the screen, and for me to be able to move to those times so that I can more easily add small details to large patterns 2 to be able to save my own patterns to my device. Thank you for your time.

1 ★ It seems I can't draw my own starting cells, I can only choose from predefined ones...

4 ★ l love it! really fun simulator! defintely can spend some time with this. I rate it 4 stars for now as i hope there is an update where 1) we can play a simulation in a step-by-step mode to see the progress/regress in a simulation run and 2)the grid doesnt reset itself when we have to shrink the app. hopefully this can be rectified in a future update. awesome app! recommended!

4 ★ Its great but its missing a copy function where you have this one thing and you just copy the whole thing to another side and can flip it a d a save fuction

5 ★ great implementation of the classic game! The game is all about seeing the crazy things that happen from simple beginning states... unless you're really cool, in which case you can use a simple start to build a cool structure that moves... the only suggestion i would make is giving you a place to name and store your own patterns (I've only found preset patterns).

4 ★ Very cool. Got me interested in this kind of stuff. Lots and lots of patterns to watch and mess around with, and I like to just place down random patterns to see how they would turn out. Also you can customize the pixels to different colors. Try this game out.

5 ★ Great implementation. Nice set of ready patterns, really want to look at every one. It's not easy though with going through the list. Maybe you can consider making 'next' button, that would load the next pattern?
