Bacteria

'Bacteria' is an engaging puzzle game crafted by the creators of 'Energy Balance' and 'Energy Cycle'. This intriguing game draws inspiration from the principles of the cellular automaton known as 'Life', invented by John Horton Conway in 1970. In 'Bacteria', players encounter a square game field that begins in a stable state. Your objective is to strategically add a specific number of cells so that the field eventually reaches a halted state or can even be cleared, depending on the chosen mode.

Players can utilize various strategies, including placing single cells or employing classic 'Life' patterns such as "Gliders" and "Lightweight Spaceships (LWSS)", which enhance gameplay by introducing movement dynamics—Gliders travel at an angle while LWSS moves in a straight line. The game caters to different skill levels, allowing players to work within varied areas to introduce new cells, making it accessible yet challenging for all.

With its thought-provoking puzzles and strategic depth, 'Bacteria' promises to captivate both casual gamers and puzzle enthusiasts alike.
