Conway's Game of Life Simulator

Welcome to Conway's Game of Life!

Click on the grid to toggle cells on/off. Use the controls to start/pause the simulation, clear the grid, or add predefined patterns.

The Game of Life follows simple rules:

  1. Any live cell with fewer than two live neighbours dies (underpopulation).
  2. Any live cell with two or three live neighbours lives on to the next generation.
  3. Any live cell with more than three live neighbours dies (overpopulation).
  4. Any dead cell with exactly three live neighbours becomes a live cell (reproduction).

Watch as complex patterns emerge from these simple rules!
