An Assimilation Simulation
A downloadable game for Windows
An Assimilation Simulation
Play as a swarm of critters with the objective of converting all other life-forms to your colour (the interpretation of any symbolism or metaphor behind this is left as an exersise for the reader, go nuts!)
The Game
You can influence your swarm to move towards a location by left clicking on it. Note there is an influence radius and the larger your swam gets, the harder it will be to control!
Critters will be converted from one colour to the other if they are surrounded by more of that colour than their current colour. Make sure you only engage enemy swarms when you can comfortably outnumber them.
Convert all critters to your colour to win the game!
Simulation Mode
At any point you can enable simulation mode, either from the introduction dialogue or from the menu in the upper left.
Simulation mode disables all game mechanics and lets you watch critters roam around and convert each other to your heart's content. Feel free to modify the parameters of the simulation as well, and see how it affects the swarming behaviour of the critters.

Simply would not work for me. I would instantly lose and be unable to see any critters. pls Fix
its so fun with seemingly few mechanics going on
Oh my god! This game is so satisfying and it is highly replayable. It can replace MS Mine Sweeper. Great job!
