Description

In this version of Conway's Life, there are two types of lifeforms and they can destroy each other by the same rules as the original life. Two players take turns placing their specific lifeform on a 5x5 grid then the simulation runs for 1 pass. Players then get turns to place an addition member of their chosen lifeform. Players can see the simulation after a pass but do not get to see where the other player placed their lifeform. The winner kills all of the other player's lifeforms.
