[...] The universe of the Game of Life is an infinite two-dimensional orthogonal grid of square cells, each of which is in one of two possible states, alive or dead. Every cell interacts with its eight neighbours, which are the cells that are horizontally, vertically, or diagonally adjacent. At each step in time, the following transitions occur: * Any live cell with fewer than two live neighbours dies, as if caused by under-population. * Any live cell with two or three live neighbours lives on to the next generation. * Any live cell with more than three live neighbours dies, as if by overcrowding. * Any dead cell with exactly three live neighbours becomes a live cell, as if by reproduction. The initial pattern constitutes the seed of the system. The first generation is created by applying the above rules simultaneously to every cell in the seed—births and deaths occur simultaneously, and the discrete moment at which this happens is sometimes called a tick (in other words, each generation is a pure function of the preceding one). The rules continue to be applied repeatedly to create further generations."

Like srsly y? -- i play wii, 2021-06-27 ### *---- "Nothing Happens" There is nothing that appears, no grid, no blocks. -- PETA 2 User, 2020-04-12 ### ***** "Interesting App! Very well designed!" Not a whole lot of people know about Game of Life. But once you know the rules it gets super interesting, especially implementing different algorithms to improve performance. Developer has done an excellent job designing the UI. -- Prabhjyot Saluja, 2016-11-04 [View all Game of Life (cellular automaton) reviews and detailed analytics on AppTail](https://app.apptail.io/signup?utm_campaign=ai-crawl&utm_content=reviews) ## Game of Life (cellular automaton) Discovered Keywords - game of life cellular automaton ## Apps Similar to Game of Life (cellular automaton) - [Aexels](https://apptail.io/app/aexels-JAeb/united-states) - [حجر النرد,عداد,العملة المعدنية](https://apptail.io/app/hgr-alnrdaadadalaaml-almaadny-ItXb/united-states) - [Pixel Art - grid doodle](https://apptail.io/app/pixel-art-grid-doodle-ONXb/united-states) - [Life Explorer](https://apptail.io/app/life-explorer-YApc/united-states) - [Fractally](https://apptail.io/app/fractally-bBpc/united-states) - [PixelNote](https://apptail.io/app/pixelnote-mZzd/united-states) - [Stara by Love Digits](https://apptail.io/app/stara-by-love-digits-Ltuf/united-states) - [Creature Encounters!](https://apptail.io/app/creature-encounters-lZyf/united-states) - [Tiamat - Cellular Automata](https://apptail.io/app/tiamat-cellular-automata-uXRh/united-states) - [Newborns](https://apptail.io/app/newborns-WJwm/united-states) ## Game of Life (cellular automaton) Available In - [United States](https://apptail.io/app/game-of-life-cellular-automaton-ZApc/united-states) - [Ukraine](https://apptail.io/app/game-of-life-cellular-automaton-ZApc/ukraine) - [China](https://apptail.io/app/game-of-life-cellular-automaton-ZApc/china) - [Canada](https://apptail.io/app/game-of-life-cellular-automaton-ZApc/canada) - [United Kingdom](https://apptail.io/app/game-of-life-cellular-automaton-ZApc/united-kingdom) - [Japan](https://apptail.io/app/game-of-life-cellular-automaton-ZApc/japan) - [Egypt](https://apptail.io/app/game-of-life-cellular-automaton-ZApc/egypt) - [Indonesia](https://apptail.io/app/game-of-life-cellular-automaton-ZApc/indonesia) - [Israel](https://apptail.io/app/game-of-life-cellular-automaton-ZApc/israel) - [India](https://apptail.io/app/game-of-life-cellular-automaton-ZApc/india) - [Kazakhstan](https://apptail.io/app/game-of-life-cellular-automaton-ZApc/kazakhstan) - [Lebanon](https://apptail.io/app/game-of-life-cellular-automaton-ZApc/lebanon) - [Malaysia](https://apptail.io/app/game-of-life-cellular-automaton-ZApc/malaysia) - [Nigeria](https://apptail.io/app/game-of-life-cellular-automaton-ZApc/nigeria) - [Norway](https://apptail.io/app/game-of-life-cellular-automaton-ZApc/norway) - [New Zealand](https://apptail.io/app/game-of-life-cellular-automaton-ZApc/new-zealand) - [Peru](https://apptail.io/app/game-of-life-cellular-automaton-ZApc/peru) - [Philippines](https://apptail.io/app/game-of-life-cellular-automaton-ZApc/philippines) - [Singapore](https://apptail.io/app/game-of-life-cellular-automaton-ZApc/singapore) - [Thailand](https://apptail.io/app/game-of-life-cellular-automaton-ZApc/thailand) - [Türkiye](https://apptail.io/app/game-of-life-cellular-automaton-ZApc/turkey) - [Vietnam](https://apptail.io/app/game-of-life-cellular-automaton-ZApc/vietnam) - [Australia](https://apptail.io/app/game-of-life-cellular-automaton-ZApc/australia) - [South Africa](https://apptail.io/app/game-of-life-cellular-automaton-ZApc/south-africa) - [Brazil](https://apptail.io/app/game-of-life-cellular-automaton-ZApc/brazil) - [Belarus](https://apptail.io/app/game-of-life-cellular-automaton-ZApc/belarus) - [Chile](https://apptail.io/app/game-of-life-cellular-automaton-ZApc/chile) - [Algeria](https://apptail.io/app/game-of-life-cellular-automaton-ZApc/algeria) - [Ecuador](https://apptail.io/app/game-of-life-cellular-automaton-ZApc/ecuador) --- ## About AppTail [AppTail](https://apptail.io) is a mobile app intelligence platform providing app analytics, ASO (App Store Optimization) tools, keyword tracking, competitor analysis, revenue estimates, and review monitoring for iOS App Store apps.
