Chiamarlo &#8220;gioco&#8221; \u00e8 forse un&#8217;esagerazione, visto che una volta definita la configurazione iniziale il suo svolgimento \u00e8 univocamente determinato.<br \/>\nBene: Steven Frank <a href=\"https:\/\/merveilles.town\/@stevenf\/116031131826905319\">sta studiando<\/a> il Conway&#8217;s Game of Death. Si parte da una configurazione del Game of Life che crescerebbe senza limiti (ce ne sono), e il vostro scopo \u00e8 ammazzare i quadratini per fermarla. Cos\u00ec ad occhio c&#8217;\u00e8 una caratteristica che definirei &#8220;idra&#8221;: per come \u00e8 fatto Life, a volte eliminare una cella aumenta la viralit\u00e0 della configurazione restante, perch\u00e9 permette di avere pi\u00f9 &#8220;nascite&#8221; (celle con esattamente tre vicini) e meno &#8220;morti&#8221; (celle con quattro o pi\u00f9 vicini: muoiono anche le celle con zero o un vicino, ma quella \u00e8 un&#8217;altra storia).
