Life: the Social Game (or simply LifeSocialGame or Life) is a social-network game designed by an independent development group called MaD Projects[1], in 2011[1]. The game takes place inside a two-dimensional matrix and its principle is similar to the John Conway's Game of Life.
However, it is not an algorithm like Conway's, but human players who control in real time the graphic elements of a global matrix, based on one unit per person. All the actions of the players are visible at all times to each of them. There is no concept of victory or defeat, the goal of the game is simply to stay alive as long as possible to gain visibility and connect with as many other players as possible, collectively draw recognizable shapes and observe how people create them together.
It is a multiplayer game based on a social platform that provides users with an identity and is able to provide the basis for simple forms of communication.
Game Rules
[edit]Each player occupies a small cell in a global mosaic formed by the set of all the cells occupied by the other participants (several thousand players can play at the same time, on different grids). Each player can then change position, looking for an ideal "neighborhood" of 2 or 3 neighboring cells occupied by as many players. From this cycle, contact bonds are created between players, who can get to know each other, make friends and exchange messages. Greater social interaction leads to greater visibility at the top of an ever-evolving leaderboard. If at the end of a 3-day period the player is not part of a stable neighborhood of 2 or 3 other units, he will be eliminated and will have to start over, while maintaining his friendship bonds.
When a player leaves the game, his box disappears and his position remains empty until another player occupies it.
Versions
[edit]Life Social Game runs on a centralized web platform (2011) and a mobile version (2024). This latest version is available on the Web, via Progressive Web App on Android mobile, iPhone / iPad, on the reference site
