Conway's Game of life for Android

Post by Amy » April 15th, 2020, 1:25 am

Being interested in Conway's Game of life, I searched for the Android app to play the game and I found Conway's Game of Life android game and installed it on my Samsung Oreo smartphone. It seems to be complicated but tried to play. When I try to place a pixel on the bottom of the screen, the game crashes. Is this a regular bug or problem of my device?

Hello, welcome to the forums!
What game of life simulator are you using? Please show us a screenshot.
(Or perhaps you need to contact the developers elsewhere because they may not be in this forum.)

You may want to try this forum's official GoL simulator, Golly.

@ Amy

I collected over 200 CGoL android apps in a small cheap seven inch tablet.

I was going to rate them all, because I need a few; then I lost the tablet...

If you are serious about CGoL then Golly for android is the best app for you

but here is a link : http://gol.jct.onl

Cheers !

Just download golly if you have a computer http://golly.sourceforge.net/
Or if you are using an iPhone https://apps.apple.com/cn/app/golly/id553184760?l=en
And I believe there’s one for Android

Okay, I will try.. As it seems PC is the best way to make it happen. It's hard to figure out what to do when trying to play on smartphone

If nothing else works, lazyslug.com has the same LifeViewer that this forum has, and since it's a website and not an app, it should work on any device. (I don't have Android, so I don't know if it does have anything.)
