Game of Lives is a two player variant of the famous Game of Life.
Rules
The order of moves is the following: Red (black) and Yellow (white) player alternately get N moves on N times N board (for example, with boardsize 9, Red gets 5 moves and Yellow 4 moves). Then the sequence (Yellow, Life, Yellow, Red, Life, Red) is repeated until the winning player gets at least 2/3 of all living cells after the life step. If the board gets empty, the game ends in a draw.
The moves of the two players are to place a cell of one's own colour to an empty point. The Life step corresponds to the rules of the Game of Life. A cell lives if it has 2 or 3 cells in its 8-neighbourhood. A new cell is born in an empty point, if there is exactly 3 cells in the 8-neighbourhood. The colour of the new cells is determined by majority.
User Interface
The game is played by tapping the squares on the board. For the life step you can tap anywhere on the board. Starting a new game and selecting options is possible using the menu. The delay option applies between life and palm moves.
The status bar below the board indicates the 5 next turns (from left to right) and the balance between the red and yellow (black and white) cells.
What's New in This Release:
· Bigger graphics for the small board, three AI levels, gray-scale version in the same file, delay options
