		Simlife, after all, is itself a chimerical beast - part toy, part game, part tool, it exists at that node where the practices of science and the practices of culture collide.
		But the corporeal players of Simlife are also complicit in the "reproduction" of Simlife; the distribution of Simlife creatures, the deployment and articulation of their vitality, relies on the external ""wetware" of human brains, their rhetorical softwares, their bodies and machines, just as the orchid is bound up with the wasp.
		In the Simlife tutorial, the first action the user is directed to take in the Simlife World is to "draw your name in seeds." Watching the seeds sprout, grow and die in something approaching the pattern of your name plays out the drama implicit in much of genomics.

	troping life
		The salmon ton the SimLife program are a representation of actual salmon, but both salmon are potentially living, just as the image of a heartbeat on a cardiogram is kept "alive" by the same electricity that animates the actual heart.
		SimLife certainly does provide a challenge for the player, and people obviously get some sort of enjoyment out of playing it, which is for me sufficient to call it a game.
		Simlife is an illusion, a trick that is exactly what its name makes it out to be, a simulation, not a recreation, of life.

		Maxis once again lets you play God-- but in contrast to SimEarth's macro-management, Simlife lets you design and manipulate the genes of plants and animals to see how they behave in a simulated environment.
		Simlife is a great game for anyone with a passing interest in genetics and ecology.
		The downside was that the game was a memory hog for its time-- requiring a whopping 4MB to run If you like to tinker with genetics, SimLife is one of the best electronic "toys" of its kind.

		SimLife only begins to make sense when you understand something about what it's doing under the covers, which means that the kinds of people who are drawn to the program are those who are interested in genetic algorithms and emergent behaviour.
		These kinds of things are generally grouped under the title of 'artificial life', and I'm betting most copies of SimLife that didn't end up in the bin found their way onto the computers of A-Life groupies.
		SimLife may have been ill-conceived as a game, but as a tinker-toy for A-Life aficionados it's a hit.

		And just as in SimEarth, SimLife includes disasters you can rain upon the heads of your ungrateful progeny, although the names have changed and include an oh-so-modern sexually transmitted disease and an invasion of real-estate developers (no kidding).
		With SimLife, you can mess around with any of the plant or animal species, changing any of their genetic characteristics, even their sex life.
		SimLife isn't the first program to synthesize life--Life and Autodesk's CA Lab came first--but it is the world's best scientific software toy.

	SimLife - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
		SimLife is a computer game produced by Maxis in 1992.
		The concept of the game is to simulate an ecosystem; players may modify the genetics of the plants and animals that inhabit the virtual world.
		The producers of SimLife refer to it as "The Genetic Playground." The game allows users to explore the interaction of life-forms and environments.

	SimLife
		Simlife is on the same basis as SimCity.
		So basically you are putting a Rhinoceros'' head onto a tiger's body, or putting the head of a toucan with the body of a wallaby (kangaroo type) and adding the tail of a stegosaurus (dinosaur), or even a giraffe's head onto an ostrich's body (hence the cover pictures on the box).
		When I first bought SimLife, I was thrilled all the way home that it would be like SimCity but with animals.

	SimLife
		SimLife, "The Genetic Playground," is a new addition to Maxis's line of simulations/games/toys, such as the popular SimCity, SimAnt, and SimWorld.
		SimLife's silicon-based computer world simulates many of the features of our very own carbon-based life.
		Life is complex, and SimLife has a lot of features, too--"more buttons than all the bellies in China," the manual declares.

		SimLife is about genetics, and unless you know something about genetics it looks rather dull.
		But to get the most from the program you need to understand its design and philosophy, and this is the book that will fill you in.
		If it was my call I'd repackage SimLife with a two-volume manual set, and this would be Volume 2.

	[No title]
		For others, it may be a type of diversion close to a fractal program; you can watch a lot of things moving on the screen, then come back a few hours later and check the history to see what's still alive and when things went extinct.
		Perhaps if there were some real "scoring" mechanism for SimLife as there was for SimCity (in which money was a limited resource; in SimLife, life itself can be created pretty much infinitely, and without any cost, which I find pretty unrealistic), the game could be more playable.
		CONCLUSIONS All in all, I feel SimLife to be a very accomplished simulation with a whole plethora of variables and a world of outcomes to be explored.

		The tutorial will give you ideas about the vast range of possibilities for use in various disciplines, while the investigations themselves are somewhat more restrictive.

		You also have some control over weather, the terrain in your world, how quickly evolution happens, and other factors.
		SimLife is a really fun game, you could easily spend hours playing it.
		That said, its probably not too useful as a biology teaching tool, especially at the college level.
