A board is made of many grid points (1 and 2) arranged in a grid on a flat surface (6), and connect to a game manager (3) (a CPU+memory+software). Each grid point notifies the games manager when it is pressed, and the games manager can illuminate each grid point by one of two color. Every fixed period of time (generation) the games manager checks for each point the illumination state of the point and of a pattern of points around it, and accordingly decides what will be the illumination state of the point in the next generation. The player(s) can also affect the illumination state of a point by pressing it, and the task of the player(s) is to keep some points illuminated as long as possible, cause all the points to be switched off as fast as possible, or cause all illuminated points to be only in one color.
