## Life Explorer Reviews in United States

### **--- "Decent design but obviously missing features"
The lack of a clear button is a glaring omission from what would be a fairly good game-of-life implementation. 

Also, unfortunately, no speed controls.
-- Iguanadon55, 2022-03-26

### *---- "Stupid and finicky"
This is stupid and finicky
-- jskgkdgksk, 2020-08-16

### ****- "Good, with a large bug"
It is great. I love the format of all the different shoes that you can put down, but the reset button doesn't work so I have to reset the game everytime I want to start over.
-- Keien2009, 2020-08-11

### ***** "it's (almost) perfect"
for the people complaining about no reset, you can shake your phone and an option for it pops up. The only things i would change is that it needs a random board option and an infinite board.
-- jonah sweet, 2020-08-07

### *---- "Not good ratings"
Bad ratings
-- gone to heck, 2020-07-27

### ***** "Excellent Game of Life app"
Definitely one of the best GOL apps for the iPad.  Huge library with nice explanation of each pattern, all in the standard features except it’s missing a generation counter/population indicator.  I’d take off half a star for that, but they don’t allow half stars here so I’ll round it up to five stars.
-- Skippy the bush kangaroo, 2020-04-16

### ****- "The Only One That Works"
I downloaded literally every other Conway’s Game of Life app in the app store, and this is the only one that let’s you zoom, draw, and play on a large board. The clear function doesn’t work for some reason, so it lost one star for that.
-- Sourcreamesteem, 2019-07-28

### ***-- "OK, but could use more features"
Review

The game works. The field is very large – large enough for pretty much any normal pattern – and completely readable. You can store patterns and recall them. There is an excellenty collection of well-known patterns, that can be copied to the field with a single touch, and they're accompanied by good good explanations.

You can't see the number of moves. You can't save part of the field. You can't delete part of the field. It would also be nice to be able to start a pattern over again without having to save it first. It would be nice to be able to delete multiple patterns at a time.
-- LacusCurtius, 2015-04-19

### ****- "Likely the BEST game of life app"
Highly customizable, and its preset patterns are highly useful. 

Room for improvement:
no eraser or reset button;
allow even faster speed (if possible... :P)
-- user713908754128, 2015-02-19

### ***** "Best app for Life"
This is the best app for generating Conway's Game of Life. However, it needs an option for the universe to not wrap around, as well as a way to change the rules, for High Life and whatnot. And, the best possible improvement you can make would be the ability to not place cells immediately, but to touch your finger, have the pattern appear, but then be able to move the pattern by dragging your finger. That would avoid any irritating accuracy failures. All in all, awesome app.
