Life & Death FREE

A Multi-Player (2)
Conway’s Game of Life

…. NEW EXCITING 2 PLAYER ‘GAME OF LIFE’ INTRODUCED AFTER 42 YEARS….

Life & Death is an exciting new two-player strategy game based on Conways original single-player “Game of Life”: invented by John Conway in 1970, which has been played by millions of people. Almost all of the computers in 1970 were large Mainframes.

This is the ad driven FREE version of “Life & Death” which has 3 game boards.
See “Life & Death PRO” for many more features and boards.

TO START:
…..Simply create a unique Username (mobile # and email address are optional).
…..To practice select *** Single (1) Player or *** Simulated (2) Player.
…..To play an another Life & Death user, select Address Book (for a friend), Random Opponent, or Search: Username (for a friend)

This multi-player game has the components of the following:

“Game of Life”
“Chess”
“Othello (Reversi)”

This is a game of strategy where learning how the pieces move will win games. Learning the offense and defense of the game (like Chess) takes time.

SIMPLE:

This game is simple in principle:

Each player is given a cell color – this cell color is yours to defend. The cells colors are: Black and Red, 2 players.

1) You (black) select a Piece (like Chess) which has a defined pattern
2) Place it anywhere on the Board (it is given life and may grow automatically for X generations and stops)
3) Next Player (red) does the same (perhaps killing some of your cells)
4) Repeat

Player at the end with most cells wins. Simple, but the results are complex.

Place a piece (defined pattern) on a grid like board and the pattern normally grows.

RULES:

2 simple rules define the original “Game of Life”, which this game also uses.

On a grid like board – a single cell has 8 neighbors (where X is the cell, N is the Neighbor):

N N N
N X N
N N N

Rule 1) If a ‘dead’ cell (blank, center) has exactly 3 neighbors, in the next generation the cell is born [Life].

Rule 2) If a ‘live’ cell (center) has 2 or 3 neighbors it continues to live for the next generation, otherwise it dies [Death]

That is it – the complete rules for the “Game of Life” which is executed by the computer in a generation fashion.

[Death] known as loneliness (less than 2 neighbors) or overcrowding (more than 3 neighbors)

THIS GAME:

The game of “Life & Death” uses those same rules and stops every X generations to allow the next player to play. The multi-player aspect and the way the new rules are observed make this a fun and unique competitive game.

THE PLAY:

Each player in turn selects a Piece and places it anywhere on the board. Then the board will execute for a predetermined number of generations.

The “Generations to Play” is the number of generations to execute before the next player can place a “Piece” on the board. This number is modified in the Setup Screen.

Each Piece is has a unique name (normally given many years ago) with special generation characteristics defined in detail with a help descriptions of each.

THE BOARD:

Each board is named and has different “Pieces” (patterns) available. Some of the names of the boards include “Eden” , “Still Life”, and “Odd”. The board size, speed, rules may change when each board is selected; however, the player can change the game setup selection.
