What was your language? I read two of his books when I was a kid in Russian. Also built the matchbox machine but I think it was playing hexapawn which was too simplistic compared to tic tac toe and a bit disappointing. I couldn't find enough beads and had to use cut matches and pieces of paper as well. And it was quite a story to convince adults to buy me so many matchboxes, I think it was 21. I think this machine and Conway's Life also explained in that book have transformed me. |

All these brain-teasers, and, yes, of course, Game of Life!
I didn't have any beads, but I had about 1m of 100 pairs telco cable, so I've used small pieces of wire in colored insulation as beads :-)
