About This Game

Unlike conventional games, this is a simulator that has no set gameplay or goals. You can enjoy the process of virtual organisms evolving through self-learning motion. In a world that incorporates mechanisms of evolution like genetics and natural selection, players act as the Creator, manipulating nature and assisting in the learning and evolution of the organisms.



What Players Can Do:
  • Become the Creator of the World: Players can create their original planet and initiate a unique process of biological evolution within that planet.
  • Become a God-like Entity: You can adjust the laws of physics and natural environments to guide the direction of evolutionary progress. For example, you can create an environment rich in resources to spur a Cambrian Explosion-like increase in species, or induce an ice age to increase selective pressures and favor stronger species.
  • Experience Natural Selection Firsthand: Organisms that can find food will replicate and propagate their genes. Those that can't will be eliminated. You can observe the real-time evolution of biological structures through the mechanisms of natural selection as described in Darwinian evolution. Players can also intervene in natural selection by favoring specific organisms.
  • Alter Genetics: Induce mutations to explore the importance of genetic diversity. Maintain advantageous genes and enjoy the development of the evolutionary tree.
  • Manipulate Physics: Incorporate unique elements into an organism's genes (e.g., anti-gravity) to create creatures with fascinating movements.
  • Virtual Artificial Life Zoo: Submit your biological experiments to the developers and participate in the planning of an artificial life zoo where distinctive organisms are showcased.

Recommended Play Style:
The game is best enjoyed while multitasking, such as while working, watching TV, or listening to podcasts.

Why We Created ANLIFE, from the Developers:

Life on Earth has progressed through the "mechanisms" of genetics and natural selection. Our challenge is to replicate this profound process in digital space and give birth to new forms of life.

ANLIFE was born through our research and development process.

Would you like to join us in exploring the unknown possibilities of life through playing ANLIFE? To do so, please send the results of your experiments to the virtual zoo for research participation.
